ABOUT US
Core Talent Inc., est. 1992 by Tim Pendergast with the goal of helping Community Banks compete with the large Regional Banks that were acquiring their way into Colorado and Arizona.
"Colorado National Bank" was our first client! Soon after we were hired by Omni Bank, Merchants Mortgage, United Banks of Colorado, First Interstate Bank, Vectra Banks, First Data Corporation, Rocky Mountain Bankcard, and others".
Although the "plan" for each client was similar, we worked closely with HR and the Executive Team to draft and implement a recruiting strategy that for the first time was based heavily on the cultural fit. There was a palpable difference in how you did your job under the "big bank" model but so were there big differences between peer banks. Organizational culture was truly unique and often a reflection of the CEO, the Executive Team, and HR Leaders.
A lot has changed in banking since the early '90s but the fact remains that a sustainable competitive advantage can only be achieved by attracting and retaining top talent.
Attracting and Retaining Top Talent
CEOs cited the ability to attract and retain quality workers as their top internal concern. This comes as no surprise given the challenges posed by today’s tight labor market. With work opportunities abundant during this time of record-low unemployment, people are leaving their jobs at the highest rate since 2001.
In this economic environment, executives need to remember that short-term financial metrics are just one part of the equation. They need to place even more emphasis on building and maintaining a strong company culture. And to make their organizations attractive, enticing places to work, companies need to constantly measure and improve their “people metrics” – benchmarks like attrition, diversity, and engagement.
