Guessing is not a strategy: How to build decision velocity with AI and real-time data
June 10, 2026 | Live Webinar
Guess which of these three sourcing and recruiting strategies Bersin & Associates found to have the highest “business impact”:
(1) Consolidating staffing requirements across the organization
(2) Internal sourcing: internal job postings, career planning, and promotion to recruit from within
(3) Employer brand: using web, collateral, and marketing to position well for recruiting
What do you think?
Perhaps your organization emphasizes strategies (2) and (3). These rate 29% and 22% business impact respectively. The most successful strategy according to Bersin is (1) with a 42% business impact. That formal and active control function has the second highest impact of all best practices they list! Yet staffing requirements are usually in control of organizational fiefdoms. If you and your colleagues are having trouble getting and keeping the best candidates, fight the fiefs.
