We have just completed a strengths-based recruitment project for Starbucks. Here is what their HR Director said about the work:
‘I was completely inspired working with talentsmoothie. They showed a great appreciation of our business challenges and their work on Generation Y and the strengths-based recruitment approach was so relevant to us that they quickly became a core part of our transformation plan. Over nine months we worked with talentsmoothie to define a new strengths-based approach to recruitment. Their partnership throughout the project was enlightening. They seamlessly immersed themselves in our business so that they could really understand how we operated, worked as active members of the project team to deliver results and continually coached and provoked the project team to consider a fair balance of cultural and commercial impacts.
Their experience, expertise and approach has been invaluable. I would not hesitate to recommend talentsmoothie to other businesses that are ready to embrace change and business transformation’.

We continue to consult with many clients, including some well known financial services groups, developing generational diversity strategies which enable them to get the bets from all generations. Why are they working on this right now? The reasons they give include:
In one particular case, we have surveyed and interviewed staff across Europe, and armed with that insight, have developed and tested an overarching generational diversity strategy to release potential improvements in collaboration and team work, as well as ensuring they have the best possible Gen Y consumer insight.
We have developed tools and processes to quickly assess the areas you need to focus on to create a generational diversity strategy. We can then guide you as you test and evaluate the strategy and implement initiatives to deliver it.
If you want to explore how a coherent Generational Diversity Strategy in your business can give you distinct competitive advantage, contact Simon Walker on +44(0)20 7127 4741
