    POV2050 works with organizations to build teams and

    leverage culture in order to win the war on talent.

     

     

  • STRATEGY: CULTURE AS

    A COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGE

    Currently, a candidate-driven market has necessitated the need for companies to compete, often on a global basis, for top talent. Building and maintaining a diverse, positive culture plays a critical role in candidate retention. In addition to the job opportunity itself, today's candidates believe a company's culture (positive or negative) is a key component when deciding whether to stay with or leave an organization.

     

    POV2050 works hand-in-hand with leaders, human resources, and talent management to develop strategies that leverage culture and employee engagement (before and after a hire) as a competitive advantage.

    By Dara Blumenthal, PhD
