Hi there! I’m Erika Garza, Talent Leader at Proceti, and today I want to share something I’m passionate about: how we’re transforming the way we search for and choose tech talent.

In my daily work, I see how Chief Technology Officers (CTOs) face a significant challenge: everyone wants to innovate, but there never seem to be enough hands to do it. Sound familiar? But what if I told you we’re looking at this problem from the wrong angle?

Shifting Our Perspective on Talent

Imagine for a moment that tech talent isn’t hard to find but rather a landscape we can navigate together. Sounds nice, right? But this isn’t just an interesting idea. At Proceti, we experience it every day.

A McKinsey study shows that 87% of companies already feel, or will soon feel, the lack of critical skills. This isn’t something to scare us, but rather to motivate us to think differently.

Cultivating Our Innovation Landscape

At Proceti, we’re not just looking to find the best. We ask ourselves, How do we create a place where people can grow and thrive? This is what we call Raising The Bar, our philosophy of always giving our best and helping others do the same.

• Teams That Complement Each Other Let’s forget about the “us vs. them” mentality when it comes to internal and external teams. The future lies in teams that blend and complement each other. It’s like making a recipe: each ingredient brings its unique flavor.
• Transparent and Effective Collaboration At Proceti, we understand that collaboration between internal and external staff is key to CTO success. That’s why we’ve developed processes that facilitate smooth communication and seamless integration of talent. Our approach promotes teamwork in harmony, driving toward common goals.
• Diversifying Talent Sources We know that CTOs are constantly seeking new ways to find exceptional talent. At Proceti, we don’t limit ourselves to just one source. This allows us to offer CTOs a diverse pool of talents, each with unique perspectives and skills that enrich their teams.

The Heart of Technology:

People Sometimes, amidst all the code and innovation, it’s easy to forget that real people are behind every step. As CTOs, the real challenge is to create an environment where this talent aligns with project goals, fostering effective and transparent collaboration that benefits everyone.

It may sound like a cliché, but in our case, it’s true: At Proceti, we’re not just a team, we’re a family that grows together. And we see how this approach not only solves problems for the people we serve but also makes them happier and more engaged. When people feel valued and understand how their work impacts something bigger, magic happens.

The Future is Now, and It’s Exciting

Technology will continue to change at an incredible pace, but with the right help, CTOs can lead that change. True innovation isn’t just in chips and software, but in how we choose and empower the people behind the technology.

At Proceti, our mission is clear: we want to create a community of experts passionate about digital transformation. We believe the best technology can unlock the potential of both people and businesses. And we’re not settling for less: we aim to be leaders in making technology synonymous with prosperity and opportunity for all.

Are you ready to be part of this silent revolution? The future is waiting for us, and together, we can make it extraordinary.
