In part 2 of this exclusive video series, in partnership with VONQ, Yasar Ahmad (Director & Head of Strategic Recruitment at Wipro) discusses the impact of cultural fit on diversity and inclusion. Yasar considers how cultural fit should not have a place within recruitment, with companies focusing more on shared values instead, which in turn will help build your organisation’s culture. He then continues to look at how technology can help organisations identify the potential talent for their future, looking at how AI will help us, not take over.
