461: Closing the Gap Between Talent Supply & Demand w/ Mathias Linnemann

Talent management is one of the hottest trends in business today. Talent has always been a key differentiator, but recent changes have been accelerated by COVID and stressed by the great resignation, leading us to total talent management - also known as contingent labor. 

In this episode, host Philip Ideson is joined by Mathias Linnemann, the Co-founder and Chief Commercial Officer of Worksome, a marketplace and workforce management systems for freelance and contract labor. He and his team have had a front row seat for the recent changes in talent, and they have not just monitored trends - they have found ways to innovate the space as well.

They take this opportunity to discuss:

• The rise of the freelance economy and what it means for companies and procurement teams
• Recent changes in how companies are accessing talent, and how that provides new opportunities to access talent and experience were previously out of reach
• Who owns the talent spend category, and the role that procurement can play in driving business outcomes that extend far beyond savings
