Holistic Talent Supply Chain Management is an HBR study sponsored by Kelly OCG, which is the outsourcing division of the large staffing firm Kelly Services.
The study surveyed around 300 global business leaders to understand the talent challenges large organizations are facing and identify the best practices among leading companies working with external talent.
For me the most interesting section of the study covers how large corporations view contingent talent.
The study chart below shows that corporations see contingent talent as increasing business flexibility and agility as well as allowing them to access hard to find talent.
This fits with our research, which shows that while cost and saving money continues to be a reason corporations use contingent workers, it's no longer the main reason.
