According to Ben Casnocha’s latest book, The Alliance, with LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman, if you want to recruit, train and retain the best people for your company, it is critical for you to understand that the old employer-employee relationship is dead. The model of guaranteed long-term employment no longer works in today’s business environment which is defined by constant change, but neither does a system in which employees act as free agents. Their view is that in today’s entrepreneurial age, the best employees are not pledging lifelong loyalty to companies but want to sign up for “tours of duty” – specific missions that are mutually beneficial to the employee and the organization that can be completed in a realistic amount of time. Casnocha presents a revolutionary way to make a new talent alliance work for your company. Learn about the tools you will need to recruit, manage, and retain the kind of employees who will make your organization thrive in today’s world of constant innovation and fast-paced change.
