Leaders,
How well do you really know the contingent talent landscape? Enough to run a program? Enough to build a platform? I’m willing to bet that no matter how well you know the space, you’re going to love hearing how Angela breaks down the evolution of contingent talent leaders—from supportive roles to strategic powerhouses—and how the industry has shifted from legacy VMSs and MSPs (or rogue spend) to tech-first Employer of Record (EOR) and Vendor of Record (VOR) solutions.
Angela Alberty, Co-Founder & CXO of myBasePay, a leading EOR provider, previously served as Vice President of Business Development at People 2.0.
She highlights a compelling reality that most talent leaders have yet to fully grasp. In her words, “there’s a talent revolution but you can’t see it because it looks like white space”. This white space represents the unmanaged contingent talent spend occuring outside formal channels.
The issue brings two levels of consequences. Level one is operational. Companies can’t embrace their scale advantage, they can’t bring the various teams and leaders together, and they spin their wheels on optimizing existing talent strategies rather than embracing new technologies. Level two is diminishing brand equity. Along with providing a poor talent performance, companies like Nike are exposed to major misclassification risk.
The solution is to be strategic rather than supportive with your contingent talent strategy, and Angela will give us a master class in this.
She also teaches us about Latin American talent and offers insights on how every region can access this promising market.
Key takeaways:
- How myBasePay achieved significant growth during the pandemic.
- EOR 101: What is it, and how EOR solutions provide risk mitigation and compliance oversight.
- Staffing agencies need to evolve to remain relevant, and myBasePay is a platform that helps staffing agencies meet market demand.
- Cultural affinity plays a crucial role in nearshoring success. Instead of just outsourcing, it’s crucial to have a partner who is deeply embedded in these regions.
- myBasePay proves that loyalty among Latin American workers leads to better retention and productivity.
