Alison Harrigan, Sector Leader, Travel Hospitality & Leisure, Korn Ferry, interviewed by Lan Elliott

Alison shares the importance of mentoring others, including people from a different demographic – not just because mentors benefit and learn from their mentees, but also because hiring leaders are requesting this.  She also discusses how to cultivate a network – and where the magic is.  Alison talks about recent trends in recruiting, what makes candidates stand out . . . and what makes hiring leaders stand out, plus the one area of personal development candidates are not focusing on enough.
