As part of my “How to attract top talent with precision & clarity” series, we move on to the COACH profile.
We use a platform called Contribution Compass to profile candidates. When we take the time to understand the profile of the person we want to recruit, we can be smart using the right language to attract that candidate, saving time filtering in the right people and filtering out the wrong people.
What does a Connector need?
The space to “experience” thing – they are experiential learners
The freedom to be “present”
The time to nurture their relationships
What will a Connector bring?
Understated but valuable people engagement
The quiet, gentle side of inspiring energy
Someone who values fairness
Skilled diplomacy
Balance the risk
Sell themselves short to keep others happy. Don’t do woolly plans. Seeing the only solution as being an immediate fix. Putting the joy of engaging over focusing on a return. Putting everyone ahead of themselves.
