Companies across the globe are grappling with talent shortage. To ensure success and meet changing needs of customers, it is crucial for any organization to find the right talent. It is the right set of people that help organizations grow and boost productivity. As organizations are going through a phase of transformation, this also requires a transformative understanding of people and organizations to remain sustainable.
A prominent player in the industry, VALPEO offers next level leadership and advisory to help design organizations by mapping roles, detecting talent, increasing engagement, benchmarking reward strategies, and building talent pipeline.
Understanding human nature is at the center of their approach.
Their approach is very effective in simplifying the disruption that companies face, better predicting it, and preparing for it rather than undergoing it.
Fostering a Transformative Understanding of People and Organizations
Traditional recruitment and selection practices aim at evaluating behaviour and not the identity of an individual. VALPEO challenges the conventional norms and takes a unique approach to understand the underlying dynamics. Its paradigm shift centers around a deep understanding of human nature. Fabiaan elaborates, “We go beyond surface–level evaluations to gain a comprehensive understanding of their motivations, aspirations, and the complexity they thrive in.”
This dynamic approach allows a broader perspective on people and organization, placing everything into context. It supports the creation of sustainable value, ensuring that all levels of the organization are aligned with the purpose of the organization.
And the benefits are diverse: a better understanding of how value is created; who can bring which level of value; a better understanding of how industries will evolve; better utilization of potential; higher efficiency and effectiveness, higher retention,… and ultimately a more sustainable organization.
