Episode 55: Making the Most of Your Time with Matt Battista at Party City
On today’s episode, host Ryan Dull is joined by Matt Battista, Senior Director of Enterprise Talent Management at PCHI.
Matt’s talent acquisition initiatives revolve primarily around saving the organization money and his team’s time by streamlining their workflows with technology and improved processes. For him, there are several key foundations to this approach:
A smaller team, when aided with technology and defined process, can be more agile and quick than a team with more moving parts.
Technology should be implemented to aid existing processes, not as an attempt to transform a workflow.
Never neglect the team members themselves. Effective communication between staff is a greater asset than the best technology.
Data is essential to using other assets well.
There is no one-size-fits-all strategic hiring plan. The only way to find and attract the best in class talent for your organization is to tailor your strategy according to the available data.
Tech tools are not an excuse to stop professional development. Improving your own skills and the skills of your team will help you use any tools more effectively.
For Matt, digital solutions are just one piece of a puzzle along with personal growth and individual effectiveness.
