Without the insights of Creative Chemistry in your recruitment strategy, your ecosystem could look like this:
15% CREATIVE
Innovation is stifled in favour of "getting the job done", even if the methods and vision is outdated
20% COLLABORATIVE
Relationship building, trust, and communication are not prioritised, and buy-in from your people is missing
55% inquisitive
An emphasis on action and forward momentum that creates a high stress and burn-out environment
10% CRITICAL
A lack of research and well thought-out planning results in failed strategies and busyness rather than productivity
A well planned and collaborative strategy from multiple parts of the organisation to attract, hire and invest in candidates is essential to ensure that your superheroes are successful in their role, and your company achieves their overall goals.
how is your ecosystem constructed?
Organisations that use Creative Connections Portraits benefit from the superpowers of all four thinking styles when planning and executing their strategy. This ensures that the solutions and processes employed by your people are diverse and innovative.
what superpower is missing?
Gaining an understanding of which style is shaping your leadership, communication, and decision making, allows you to identify blind spots that may be impeding efficiency, collaboration, and growth. Knowing which thinking style is underrepresented, allows for powerful recruitment choices.
how are your people enabling your strategy?
Which of your people are good at details, driving change, bringing ideas, or creating cohesion? Without knowing which superpowers are available to you, businesses cannot make full use of their greatest capital - its people.
how are your teams functioning?
Relationships are what drives teams forward and determines their success. Successful recruiting cannot be based solely on skills and talent, but needs to take into consideration the culture and style, so that your people know how to welcome in, train, and include new members.
