Defining Talent Mindset

15 Content Property of Pinstripe, Inc.

What is Talent Mindset?

Understanding that: • “Talent” isn’t a commodity • Recruitment & retention are everyone’s

job • Employer branding isn’t just a career

website and referral program • The culture and sub-cultures you create

have an impact on the talent you attract • The policies and procedures that enhance

or hinder productivity and creativity matter

• The caliber of your people and the environment you create for them has a direct impact on your ability to accomplish business results.

We (you and I) are the arbiters charged with sharing, spreading and stimulating a talent mindset around the world.
