Talent Acquisition is a function no stranger to change, but perhaps there has never been a moment quite like this that is confronting our industry; radical decentralisation of organisation structure, diversification of employee contracts, shift from one to maybe multi-modal ways of operating, the blurring the divide between 'company' and 'market', the rise of social imperatives as a business priority and the loosening of organisational structure to facilitate internal mobility. And that's not including dramatic developments in technology with advances in AI, talent intelligence, people analytics and workforce automation.
