market shifts

On this episode of The Full Desk Experience, we have the privilege of speaking with Chris Allaire, the esteemed CEO and founder of Averity.

Chris is here to drop some serious wisdom on the ever-evolving landscape of tech staffing and recruiting. With a robust 25-year background in the industry, he brings to the table an alternative outlook on the importance of prioritizing quality over quantity in candidate databases and relationships.

Today, we're uncovering the unique approaches that have catapulted Averity from its fledgling days to a powerhouse that juggles the delicate balance between full-time and contract staffing, and thrives despite the market's undeniable shift towards consultancy roles.

We'll explore Chris's contrarian take on KPIs, where he debunks common metrics and shines a spotlight solely on the power of interviews. Plus, get ready for an edifying debate on the role of AI in recruiting as Chris champions the irreplaceable human element of the hiring process.

Join us as Chris shares his invaluable insights on adapting client strategies, fosters growth even in downtimes, and why lending an ear to industry experts is vital. All this, plus a touch on the non-traditional benefits for today's IT consultants and a glimpse into Averity's goals for 2024.

Tune in, as we get a full dosage of what it truly means to connect talent with opportunity.

From the importance of positioning in existing markets to understanding shifts in audience needs and ecosystem building, Thomas provides actionable advice for those considering this high-risk, high-reward strategy.

HIGHLIGHT QUOTES

• "We need to explore whether pursuing a category creation strategy is the right move. It's a decision that carries significant implications for the ultimate success of your business and products."
• "The increased risk being that the company will not ultimately succeed—this sort of bias in the data of the study is called survivorship bias."
• "Is there an ecosystem that we believe exists or can develop around this category? What does that look like? Well, it could be as simple as customers talking about the category, buying into it, discussing things online, like the unique challenges they faced and how old solutions don't work as well today."
• "Brute forcing this is really hard, unless maybe you're Apple and you have those kinds of resources, but you need to be really crafting your strategy to make sure you leverage your resources intelligently."

Market changing events are not linear. Small incremental changes, driven by internal improvements, do not change markets. Markets shift when external events cause a "Punctuated Equilibrium" that forces us to adapt to emerging trends rapidly.  The COVID pandemic was just such an external event that punctuated the old ways of doing business and ushered in new ways of doing business, accelerating trends.  This podcast explains how we can understand the winners (and losers) before the pandemic punctuation, during the big shift, and what we can expect as we enter the new post-punctuation competitive era.

Peloton mistakenly assumed the punctuation was the new equilibrium and didn't do enough to change its model.  As the punctuation has moved to a new equilibrium we are being forced to rethink how we work, and our approach to immigration during the "Great Resignation" in a high growth economy.  Winners are recognizing how trends in Mobility, Asynchronous Work, AI and Gig Economy have created enormous new opportunities - as demonstrated by Microsoft's shift away from PCs and into big Gaming investments.  This podcast explains how understanding punctuated equilibrium helps you identify new opportunities and make better investment decisions during this time of low interest rates.

Thinking Points:

• Can you recognize how the 4 pandemic accelerated trends have changed, and will continue to change your market?
• Are you tracking external events, including current events, to identify how market shifts are creating new opportunities?
• Are you planning for a post-punctuated (post-pandemic) market? Or are you still stuck in pandemic punctuation without a plan?
• Are you ready to bet big on future scenarios so you can participate in "the next big thing?"
