Episode 115: Bringing and retaining the right talent aboard “the organizational bus” – Frank Sofia SAP Experts Podcast

    • Technologie

In his book, Good to Great, Jim Collins emphasized the importance of “who” over “what” – by stating that “those who build great organizations make sure they have the right people on the bus and the right people in the key seats before they figure out where to drive the bus”.
But in today’s rapidly evolving corporate culture, underscored by gig economy, great resignation, hybrid workplaces, how do organizations go about navigating the selective talent pool, in order to bring the right people to the right seats?
To shed a light on this very topic, I am joined by Frank Sofia. He is the Head of Executive Talent Attraction for the Americas, across all markets and lines of business. Prior to his current role, Frank served as the VP of Strategic Workforce Planning for North America Sales.
Throughout his 16-year career at SAP Frank has challenged himself to take on new opportunities across HR functions to gain deep expertise in HR Strategy, Workforce planning, Recruiting, Change management and Organizational development. He is incredibly passionate about HR transformation and enabling others to achieve their goals.
Frank holds a Masters in Industrial/Organizational Psychology from West Chester University and a BA in Psychology from Temple University.
