Aspirant, a global management and technology consulting firm, has announced the integration of affiliated company Newton Talent - a recognized leader in Talent Strategy, Sourcing, and Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO).
Newton Talent will operate as Aspirant’s Talent Strategy & Acquisition
practice, bolstering the scope of the firm’s already expansive
capabilities. Patty Silbert, who has been at the helm for Newton
Talent’s rapid growth over the past four years, will retain a
leadership role as Executive Vice President and head this new
practice.
The Talent Strategy & Acquisition practice will offer Aspirant’s
clients an array of best-in-class talent solutions that includes
the proprietary recruiting platform, PowerSourcing®, as well as
Employer Branding, Candidate Experience, Workforce Planning, and
Diversity, Equity & Inclusion capabilities.
“Newton Talent represents a direct complement to our existing
integrated service areas,” explained Mike McClaine, Aspirant CEO. “We have a strong track
record of delivering sustainable results for clients by helping
them define their goals and embedding a feasible approach for
achieving them. With the addition of the Talent Strategy &
Acquisition practice, we can also ensure they have the talent in
place to execute as planned.”
McClaine added, “I am excited about Patty Silbert’s vision for the
TS&A practice and the leadership experience she brings. Her
industry expertise and commitment to client results are
exceptional. She will be a terrific addition to the Aspirant
team.”
The integration will significantly benefit Newton Talent’s clients
as well. It creates direct access to a wide range of subject matter
experts, including the closely related Strategy & Transformation
and Organizational Effectiveness practices. These additional
perspectives and capabilities will prove valuable for HR
professionals as they keep pace with ever-increasing organizational
expectations.
“Aspirant’s integrated expertise will enrich partnerships with
hiring organizations through more holistic support of the expanding
influence of HR and talent acquisition,” added Patty Silbert. “We
are excited to show clients how joining forces with Aspirant will
enable us to develop solutions that bring about a more
strategically aligned, productive, and happier workplace.”
Silbert will join a seasoned senior leadership team at Aspirant
that includes Dr. Judy Johnson, VP, Organizational Effectiveness;
Michele Petruccelli, VP, Marketing & Innovation; Dean Campbell, VP,
Digital & Technology; John Gabrielli, CHRO; and Chris Malarky, CFO.
A veteran team of practice directors include Tim Nath, Director,
Strategy & Acquisition; Bill Kollitz, Director, Mergers &
Acquisitions; Phil Kossler, Director, App Development &
Integration; Michael Askins, Director, Microsoft Cloud Solutions;
and Shally Steckerl, Director, PowerSourcing®.
The addition of Newton Talent is a continuation of Aspirant’s rapid
growth and expansion of capabilities. In January, Aspirant acquired
TASE Labs, a Microsoft Gold Partner, in forming a new Cloud
Solutions practice. The company also recently announced a strategic
partnership with MILHEM DTL to provide digital transformation
solutions.
