Coaching, Culture, and Ecosystem Thinking at Verisk

Verisk is a global data analytics company that helps businesses understand and manage risk. Now they’re tasked with completely rethinking how to build a talent pipeline in an industry where the skills didn't exist five years ago.

In this episode of Talent All Stars, Verisk's CHRO Sunita Holzer breaks down how the company built a data science recruiting engine from scratch during the pandemic, why they hire for "ecosystem thinking" over technical skills alone, and what it really means to operate in a culture where just doing your job isn't enough.

You'll hear how Verisk measures talent success (conversion rates, retention, internal mobility), why they need employees who think about geopolitics and insurance trends as much as their day-to-day tasks, and the company's approach to developing people who can handle a rapidly evolving digital landscape.
