Have you already got what you\u2019re looking for within your own team? Undiscovered talent is everywhere, the more you look the more you\u2019ll find!<\/p>\n<p>Whilst skills and knowledge can be learnt within the workplace, individual talents can substantially propel your business to the next level.<\/p>\n<p>Like here at the Resource Centre we have our office comedians who bring light to sales calls by using their snappy one-liners to ease our customers into friendly conversation; break the ice and build rapport by communicating in a relaxed and effective way. Talent doesn\u2019t cost a penny but welcomes good sales and brings us great reputation!<\/p>\n<p>Think of yourself as a talent builder and learn what your staff can do or have already achieved outside their day to day routines and use these attributes and incorporate them into tasks.\u00a0 After all we all like doing things we are good at so you\u2019re killing two birds with one stone; keeping your staff feeling appreciated (and therefore keeping your staff turnover down) and \u00a0using new ways to motivate your staff to increase sales.<\/p>\n<p>Even creative talents such as photography or even social media enthusiasts used strategically may \u2018\u2019open new doors\u2019\u2019 for your company.<\/p>\n<p>So why not give it a try! Talent, however big or small doesn\u2019t cost you a penny and it\u2019s right in front of you. You never know, the answer to your business thriving may be in held in the mind of someone in your office right now!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This week has revived the issues of workplace employment discrimination with one headline: \u2018\u2019Bar advertising for recent graduates\u2019\u2019, stating employers [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":364,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-294","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Talent Spotting!
