Brazilian HR Startup Shows How Data is Revolutionizing Leadership São Paulo, Brazil – In an exclusive interview with CNBC Brasil, Maurício Betti, CEO of Talent Academy, a leading Brazilian HR startup, revealed how data is transforming leadership and management practices in the country. Talent Academy, which has reportedly moved R$6 billion in a decade, uses a data-driven model to identify employee potential from day one. "The competitive advantage today is knowing how to use data from day zero," Betti stated, emphasizing the importance of understanding employee profiles, talents, and potential. This approach, he explained, leads to better decisions, more prepared leaders, and more strategic retention. Betti also highlighted a significant challenge facing many companies: adapting to rapid market changes. "Companies still have difficulty adapting to the rapid changes in the market and cling too much to traditions," he observed. Talent Academy's success suggests a shift towards data-driven strategies is crucial for navigating the modern business landscape. The company's model offers valuable lessons for organizations seeking to improve their HR practices and enhance their competitive edge in Brazil and beyond.
