Katie Bussey is a seasoned industry veteran currently serving as Senior Vice President and Direct Sourcing Practice Leader at HireGenics. With a remarkable career spanning 25 years in the Staffing, Managed Service Provider (MSP), and Workforce Solution Space, Katie’s expertise and leadership have made her a trusted figure in the industry.
Over the past three years, Katie embarked on a transformative journey to create a holistic contingent talent strategy, a.k.a. a Direct Sourcing solution aimed to complement existing MSP programs or function independently as the primary workforce solution at an organization. The solution focuses on providing organizations new access points and channels to talent not found through staffing suppliers. Throughout this journey, Katie recognized that many organizations are 100% dependent on filling their contingent roles with third-party suppliers, which is no longer a sustainable talent strategy. In today’s technological age, candidates engage differently to find work. How organizations collect, utilize, and leverage talent is the difference between a good and a transformative talent strategy.
Katie and her team recently successfully launched TalentFusion by HireGenics, a groundbreaking Direct Sourcing solution in the market. TalentFusion represents the convergence of cutting-edge technology and a dedicated white-glove services team. With a focus on talent attraction, engagement, and fulfillment, TalentFusion establishes a private, branded Talent Community for each enterprise, serving as the core foundation and primary repository of candidates.
Already implemented as an enterprise-wide talent strategy by two global, publicly traded organizations, this innovative solution has delivered impressive early results, effectively solving the original challenges it set out to address.
Katie continues to drive transformation and success for HireGenics, providing forward-thinking, innovative solutions that revolutionize how organizations approach talent acquisition and workforce management.
