TAPPED TALENT :
WHAT WE STAND TO GAIN
As the nation's economy continues to recover from the impacts of the
Covid-19 pandemic, so too must businesses continue to treat what ails
them. By seriously and intently engaging with untapped talent pools,
employers have the opportunity to springboard themselves ahead of
their competitors.
The research is clear: not only is working with untapped talent the right
thing to do, but these workers directly contribute to a greater capacity
of organizational success. By bringing unique skills and knowledge,
furthering workplace diversity, and building more inclusive economies,
untapped talent groups are businesses' best path to recovery.
There is much work to be done, and organizations need to be willing
to put forth the effort that has been lacking thus far, but all signs point
to a future of greater action and renewed commitment. Together with
community partners and advocacy groups, forward-thinking employers
can empower untapped talent, boost their inclusivity, and open the
door to all workers for prosperity.
