The ‘Talent Instinct’ podcast episode 3 by Chantal Penny is an electrifying space where we dive into how construction business owners revamp their hunt for top-tier talent by ‘instinctivizing’ your efforts. In this episode we discuss some industry recruitment problems, honing your skills when hiring, how people work on auto-pilot listening, and adapting your communications to personality types and deep questioning for clarity and understanding. We also talk about red flags when hiring, industry trends when workers swap sectors (eg scaffolding in mining to civil) and how knowing the industry sectors well is the difference between a great or dud hire. And then, how do we get rid of dud people (the complaining, criticising and condemning personality traits) – second chances and solutions.
Let’s face it, making the right hire for your business has never been more paramount. The stakes of the wrong hire can disrupt performance, profit, culture and succession planning. Talent Instinct isn’t about playing safe, it’s about conquering with calculated instinct.
