Andrew Fox Getting Talent and Keeping it CRF Breakfast
How do we attract and retain talent in light  of Investec’s unique culture
I won’t be touching on: Developing a recruitment policy. How to negotiate a competitive fee with recruitment agencies. Which news media you should advertise your vacancies with.
I will be touching on: Brand Culture Generation Theory
So what is talent anyway?
“ Everyone” is talking about the war for talent, scarcity of resources and the importance of keeping talented individuals
So understanding what talent is has to be done within each context. You have to be able to answer for your organisation, what is the X factor for us? Once you know what your X factor is then you have to work out how to look for it. How to assess for it.
In my view the so called definition of Talent is different for every organisation.
Talent For Us… Entrepreneurial Flare Ability to thrive in robust debate Creativity Low need for structure
Lets talk a little bit about Branding
Many organisations have articulated a desire to position their Brand as an Employer of Choice (EOC) #1  Employer
Some organisations even position their marketing strategy accordingly RMB Microsoft SAA
But EOC in relation to what? Industry Graduates Black Professionals Engineers Everyone
And what is your EVP?
Generation Theory
0-18 1990’s and 2000’s GENERATION Y  (Millenium kids) 18-35 1970’s and 1980’s SA 1965-1990 GENERATION X 35-55 1950’s and 1960’s  SA 1948-1970 BABY BOOMERS 55-75 1915-1942 SA 1931-1949 SILENT GENERATION CURRENT AGE YEAR BORN GENERATION
Essentially, from a recruitment, attraction, Brand, retention, learning and development point of view, different generations “want” different things. Why….. Because they were shaped by different things to begin with.
 
For Example, Baby Boomers view life (the workplace) very differently from Generation X and Generation Y
So many things have to be reviewed… Share Schemes Incentives/Remuneration Project work Flexible work arrangements The very culture of the organisation
Thank you
