Our guests for Episode #39 are my senior colleagues at GPI, Diane Altland, PE, Ifeanyi Odigboh, PE, and George Sarapa, PE. Three professionals from very different backgrounds, who have travelled very different career paths to come together at GPI. This is a talented and experienced team of professional engineers with more than 70 years in the engineering industry. But this is not a podcast about engineering. Today’s show is Part 2 in our GPI Series, following up our conversation on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion. Our topic today is Attracting, Developing, and Retaining talent. You will find this show impactful regardless of industry or market sector or geography. After all, every organization is only as strong as the collective talent of the people who work there. To attract top talent, organizations need to be a place where people advance their career. It needs to be a place where people are given opportunities to learn new skills and take on new challenges. Key Topics:YOUR CAREER PATH•Different Paths…Same Destination IMPORTANCE OF WORKPLACE CULTURE•Culture of CaringCHILDCARE AND HEALTHCARE •Politics of Workplace Childcare•Flex-Schedule DIVERSITY, EQUITY, INCLUSION•People Who Look like MeMENTORING•Who is Responsible •Two-Way StreetWHEN RECRUITING BEGINS (University/HS/MS)•Too Soon/Too LateIMPORTANCE OF COMPANY MISSION and VALUES•Alignment JOB OPPORTUNITY vs CAREER OPPORTUNITY•Stepping StonePEOPLE OVER PROFIT STRATEGY•People Drive ProfitMOTIVATED OR INSPIRED•Motivation is Inside-Out, Inspiration is Outside-InSHOWCASING COMPETITIVE ADVANTAGES •Everybody Loves a Winner
