Hello Everyone and welcome to this new episode of the MACE PODCAST!
This is a special episode as I am focusing entirely on HR and Recruitment, having a special guest joining me from United Kingdom: Davide Mele.
We discuss about #Talents&Retention, #recruiment in EU and Israel, #Challenges in HR after the pandemic, #DEI, #HRTrends&Perspective, #QuiteQuitting and much more.
With decades-long experience previously as international Chairman of another recruiting firm, Davide founded SELECTUS RECRUITMENT SOLUTIONS, a bespoke recruitment consultancy committed to placing high-quality candidates in executive support functions, which is aimed to provide specialist search and selection services for Admin and Office Professionals, and overall ‘right-hand people’ in senior leadership teams.
Davide believes there is a difference between ‘competence’ and ‘talent’. It takes talent to spot talent, and that is precisely his raison d’être.
With offices in London, Paris and Tel Aviv, SELECTUS is a globally leading international recruitment agency with a sophisticated local market presence across Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA) for the most ambitious and highly competent executive support functions.
Davide is a strong believer in promoting diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) and he works tirelessly to advance an inclusive workplace culture for candidates and clients where everyone feels supported to bring their whole, authentic selves to work every day, confident that they can thrive with equal opportunities for career advancement. DEI is what makes organisations strong and Davide wants to build a workforce that brings together people with unique skills, backgrounds and professional experiences. We should be who we want to be, able to be our authentic selves in our private lives and at work. Over the past 30 years, Davide has had the privilege to recruit for some of the most influential executives and leading organisations across EMEA.
It was a pleasure to meet Davide and I was able to record this episode in person, while I was in London.
My takeaways are:
- Focus on Values, as these are the molecules that are part of your DNA and that you bring to the company/team you work for.
- Recruitment is more than Strategy, is connecting strategy with reality, is framing the architecture of business organizations.
- High Quality standards, Embracing change and Digitally mindset are the standalone assets company look for.
- Employee Empowerment, Engagement, Autonomy and Trust make the difference for employees and talents&retention
- Sense of Purpose is what makes the difference, transforming simple jobs in real careers.
- Listen, Learn and Implement as working means partnering, sharing same goals and objectives.
Which are your ones?
Stay tuned for the next episode of the MACE PODCAST!
