Talent is slipping away from you? 10 reasons why they don't choose you

As a CEO, you know that the war for talent is your daily battleground. It's not HR talk, it's the pillar that supports your business. Attracting and retaining the brightest professionals defines whether your company takes off or stagnates, whether it will compete or not. And yet, you often feel that something doesn't fit. You see how the candidates you really want don't arrive, or worse, how your best stars fade and leave. Have you ever stopped to think, in all honesty, what could be going wrong in your own house?

In this new job market, the rules of the game have changed. They are no longer the ones many of us have known and prepared for as managers. The power is now in the hands of talent, and complacency is the biggest risk you can take. High-impact professionals are no longer just looking for a good salary; they are looking for a fulfilling project with which they feel emotionally connected, a place where they can grow, feel valued and feel that their work has a real purpose.

From Servitalent, we talk every day with many companies and managers like you. We see up close those small (and not so small) cracks that prevent the best talent to connect with the companies that need it most. That's why we share with you, because experience is good for this, the 10 possible reasons why you may be struggling more than usual to attract talent your dream team. We invite you to read them unfiltered and think about which ones resonate with you.
