TALENT PLUS INC
LINCOLN, NE

“It’s a very high stakes game being played in the world today within health care…and there is very much a need for the wisdom of talent and what Talent Plus provides.” “We have been on our Talent Plus journey for three years and this partnership has proven to be invaluable for the Sutter Gould Medical Foundation (SGMF). In our large call center, we had a high absenteeism rate which impacted the timely service we were able to provide to our patients. Working with Talent Plus, we were able to identify key themes of a dependable call center employee for SGMF. Hiring employees who scored high in these themes enabled us to reduce the number of days employees were on leave and save $200,000 in one year. We are now looking at other departments to realize cost savings as well as improve the ability to deliver timely patient care.” “The Best Small & Medium Workplace list grows more competitive every year and this list represents the best of the best. While each company is unique, what they have in common are strong cultures that support positive workplaces.” “Talent Plus utilizes sophisticated and highly predictive scientific tools to help your company build a Talent-Based Organization. I continue to use Talent Plus as a selection, development and succession planning tool 22 years later.” "Talent Plus has given us a scientific, objective platform to identify talented individuals, place them in appropriate positions and coach them for maximum success according to their natural strengths and talents." “If a company could have a collective seminal moment, ours would be the point at which we realized that the Talent Plus engagement was to be the beginning of our greatness. The resulting metamorphosis bears witness to that truth. Talent Plus has helped us to discover our innate gifts and strengths, engender new vigor and nurture a collegiality unprecedented in our history. We are forever changed by what Talent Plus has taught us about ourselves.” "The work of these companies is quite impressive. They provide an example that others can look to, to see what kind of outstanding workplace is possible—regardless of size, industry, or other circumstances. For example, the growth that many of these companies are experiencing is tremendous, and they are paying close attention to culture every step of the way. This focus on a strong cultural foundation will help pave the way for continued success as they serve their employees and their customers.” “I noticed a big difference immediately. By applying the principles we were able to attain a high level of production and efficiency much more quickly, and with the core foundation being the right personnel, will elevate the Mercedes brand even higher than it already is.” “It has been very visible to all of us when a hire is made who was not recommended on the Talent Plus interview, and how that shows itself in the workplace in a negative way. So, the greatest moments for me are when we’re on the phone with a Talent Plus consultant going over a candidate’s talent interview results and being able to validate some of the things we saw in the fit interview through what comes out in the talent interview.” “Talent Plus lives and breathes recognition. When you start at the organization, on your first day, they ask you how you want to be recognized. They ask you what’s meaningful to you. It is truly engraved in their DNA and it is clearly what made them the category winner.” “The greatest outcome in using Talent Plus has been the culture we have created at West Bloomfield Hospital, which is so significantly different than anybody else in health care, and it shows. We recently celebrated our three-year anniversary and it is clear we have set a new way in which health care is being delivered.” “Talent Plus has been instrumental in helping us to decrease first year turnover. Additionally, their tools have helped us to build a more enterprise culture within our systems so that all of the local hospitals are standardized in the tools they are using. Our Talent Plus team members are consummate professionals with high levels of expertise. We enjoy them personally and professionally. We trust them and don’t feel sold to, but consulted with. And they are always responsive, reasonable and just very good people.” // Founder & President The Capella Hotel Group Former President The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company “Because of the Talent Plus® science, we were only at 2-3% turnover last year. Our employees and members are more engaged. Banquet catering sales have skyrocketed. And we constantly receive positive feedback on our quality of service. To accomplish the goal of being the best, we have to start with selecting the right people. That’s why we use Talent Plus. We are looking at raw talent - it works.” “I was amazed that every single interview analysis was exactly the person I had come to know over many years and Talent Plus captured that in an hour’s time!” “At-Sunrice GlobalChef Academy delivers four tracks of Food & Beverage education leading to international career pathways. It takes a special kind of person to excel in the F&B industry. This isn't for everyone, and Talent Plus' robust profiling tools enable us to identify these gems to be part of At-Sunrice's rigorous pedagogy, providing them with an opportunity of a lifetime and a competitive headstart into the industry.” “The companies appearing on our Best Small & Medium Workplaces list help us achieve our mission by presenting others with an example to emulate. These companies demonstrate that being an excellent employer leads to business success. While these companies may be relatively small in headcount, many of them provide services to some of the country’s largest and most notable organizations, suggesting that success has not so much to do with size as with the quality of service and experience a company provides. A great workplace, full of great employees, is better equipped to achieve that success.” “It’s a very high stakes game being played in the world today within health care…and there is very much a need for the wisdom of talent and what Talent Plus provides.”
