It seems like the topic of branding (and tacos) comes up in almost every discussion we have with you Jay!Jay: It's true! I guess I'm just lucky that way Terry.Terry: Why don't we start with a brief reminder of your definition of branding?Jay: Sounds good Terry! Branding isn't easy… I can tell you that! A lot of smart people have shared a lot of opinions and their definition of a brand. This is mine:Your brand is not your logo.Your brand is not what you do.Your brand is not your product.Your brand is your style.Your brand is your promise to me.Your brand is how you make me feel.Remember SPF! (not sun protection factor) Style - Promise - FeelTerry: What do you mean by style, Jay? Maybe you could explain that a little more?Jay: Let's start with the dictionary definition of the word style: a distinctive appearance, typically determined by the principles according to which something is designed.Playful & Lighthearted {or} Serious & SoberEconomical & Affordable {or} Luxury & LavishVintage & Classic {or} Modern & ContemporaryRock n Roll {or} Hip HopCountry {or} ClassicalTruck {or} SedanSUV {or} Mini VanV8 engine {or} ElectricYour vibe, your personality, your character, your identity.I also want to share that in my opinion, it's critical to think about this from both a business and personal perspective. Especially if you're a small business owner! Because if you are a small biz owner then you're in sales and in marketing and in bookkeeping and in production and in janitorial and in … and in…  and in… you're in EVERYTHING. This also means your personal style is in EVERYTHING. To be more clear - if your style, your personality, your identity is of a serious, sober, calm and calculated nature, then guess what?

What does the future of recruitment look like?   We've all been forced to adapt to new ways of working in recent times.  We've experienced a decade's worth of change compressed into a matter of months.  However, much of that change has been reactive.  According to Bruce Morton, author of “Redesigning the Way Work Works,” there has never been a better opportunity to strategically redesign our way of working.   Bruce is the Global Head of Strategy for Allegis, one of the top 5 largest staffing companies in the world. Bruce has worked at Allegis for 11 years and has over 40 years of experience in the human capital industry. He is well known as a global workforce design and talent acquisition expert. He has designed, implemented and managed some of the largest resourcing solutions across many different parts of the globe.  In this fascinating interview, Bruce explains the emerging role of “work-design architect,” the trend towards “projectizing” tasks, and the concept of “talent anywhere.” He also discussed the enduring impact of Covid on the future of businesses, from car manufacturing to office spaces.  Episode Outline and Highlights [3:46] Bruce's role as Global Head of Strategy at Allegis Global Solutions [7:42] Discussing Bruce's 2019 book, “Redesigning the Way Work Works” -- which of his predictions came true and how would he revise the book in light of Covid?  [12:14] What is the “work-design architect” and how is it opening a world of possibilities? [17:59] If, when and how people should return to the office. [22:08] Beyond employer branding: how companies can attract top talent and increase employee engagement by “projectizing” their tasks and introducing “stretch assignments.” [28:20] The trend towards “talent anywhere” and remote working. [32:02] The benefits of “one-click apply” [41:38] Covid realizations and enduring impact on the future of business - from car sales to office space. [43:24] Measuring outcome instead of input. [46:00] Why the opportunity divide is getting bigger and what role we can play as recruiters. “Redesigning the Way Work Works” When Bruce turned 60, coinciding with his 40th anniversary in recruitment, he wrote the book Redesigning the Way Work Works. He considered it as a gift to himself as well as his gift to the industry. The book was published pre-covid in 2019.  I asked Bruce which parts of the book would he revise post-pandemic and which of his key themes or predictions came true? He replied: “If I have time to rewrite it or update it, I would love to be able to do that and just put a big stamp on the front ‘Post Covid'. Because some of the projections that I made in the book that I was saying five to 10 years, actually happened within the first two months of Covid.” Bruce then proceeded to share his thoughts about innovation, how the way of working has significantly changed, and how organizations should think. One of my key takeaways was to “stop being limited by the four walls around you.” That will make more sense once you listen to the interview. Company Branding and How to Attract Top Performers  How do you establish a culture that attracts top talent? The culture used to be based around the office environment.  So how do you establish a brand of being a “great place to work” when most people are working remotely?  We started out discussing ideas you're already familiar with, like the need to provide great benefits, embrace diversity and inclusion, and social corporate responsibility.  Then Bruce shared a few paradigm-shifting concepts that I'd never heard before.  He explained, “When you are trying to attract people it used to be all about the company name.” Bruce explained how we're seeing a shift from being primarily loyal to the company to being loyal to the craft. Given that people are now more loyal to the profession or their expertise, Bruce pointed out that in order to attract strong performers and top talents, companies should focus on two things: “Projectizing” tasks and Giving stretch assignments The Opportunity Divide and What We Can Do A topic that Bruce is passionate about is the “opportunity divide.” He explains, “I think that it is horrendously staggering that the better we get at utilizing technology, the smarter we get as a human race, the opportunity divide is getting bigger and bigger… A CEO now on average earns 320 times more than an employee. Ten years ago the difference was only ten times.”  So how do we as an industry make a positive impact on people's lives and reduce the opportunity divide? Bruce said, “How do we educate all of our clients to think about opportunity divide and truly give people opportunity? Bruce talked about recruiting based on somebody's potential versus recruiting based on somebody's past experience.  Bruce Morton Bio and Contact Info Bruce is in his 40th year in the human capital industry and has been recognized as HR Thought Leader of the Year by HRO both in EMEA and in the US.

Suppose you don't do it, then you are out.  It's a cult-like mentality.#3 Gaslighting - you can't trust your judgment so that you can trust mine as a leader.  How you see the world is flawed, so you need to start seeing it the way I see it#4 Preach an illusion and continue to repeat.  We should be preaching a vision and continue to promote it.  His style is preaching an illusion (no basis in reality), and continue to repeat it to engrain it as reality.# 5 Surrounding yourself with Yes Men. It is OK to push back and be the squeaky wheel, but not playing the game right can cause damage and prohibit your growthTwo things about Trump's Leadership Style that are GREAT.#1 - Communication - He is very good at repetition and consistency.  Keeping his message the same. #2 - Boil down a complex message to something straightforward. Repeating things over and over again is designed to keep people in-line (example, "Fake News."Once Trump leaves office one day, how do we repair the concept of leadership?If we are going to get back to some resemblance of normal, it will be about emotion  It will not be easy for anyone taking over after a Narcissistic leader to redirect the teamTaking over and being a servant leader makes it much more challenging, but ultimately it will be what is necessary to get any organization back on track Guest Info GUEST INFORMATION! David Hauser, PhD Twitter: @realDavidHauser  Order Trump on LeadershipTrump on Leadership: Executive-ish Strategies for Tough Times https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08J1WX4BB/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_api_i_aN2BFbH3QA3A2  GLINTER SOCIAL MEDIA AND CONTACT INFO michael@michaelglinter.com (Email) https://www.michaelglinter.com/podcast-1 (Podcast) http://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelglinter2 (Linked In) #MichaelAGlinter (Twitter) http://www.facebook.com/michael.glinter (Facebook) https://www.youtube.com/c/MichaelGlinter (YouTube) www.michaelglinter.com (Website)
