Change the game
Tuesday, October 20th, 2009
What if a recruiting firm made a decision to not play today’s client-agency game?
Instead they:
- Create new value propositions (e.g. Heidrick & Struggles)
- Build communities around felt needs (e.g. Intuit)
- Relied only on personal introductions
Such a recruiting firm would be free from:
- Participating in a system that has commoditized talent
- Focusing on weekly or monthly transactions
- Being viewed as competition
What would such an agency look like?
Would this be easy to create? No. Making your own rules and redefining success never is.
