Quotes:

“I believe that in talent acquisition especially, we are data rich, but information poor. We still aren't very good with insights. And so when we take a look at 2023 and beyond, to me, we're going to start to redefine success of HR and talent acquisition in a completely new way.”

“The biggest mistake I find . . . is that companies are trying to take their current process and just overlay new technology and call that digital transformation. What they should say is, ‘What happens if we scrap our entire process and start with a blank, white piece of paper? How could we do this differently, better, etc?’ That's really transformational.”
