What are Fractional Talent Platforms?

Fractional flexible talent platforms help you find the right fractional flexible talent, structure the right contracts, triage any problems, potentially be the employer of the record, and help you build out your fractional talent strategy.

Human Cloud's Analysis

How do you drive executive level outcomes in a dynamic, rapidly changing environment? We all know that executives are high risk hires. If they work, they become force multipliers to your business. If they don’t, it can take years to resolve and revert back to where you were before them.

Instead of high risk hiring, fractional talent platforms provide a low risk way to find incredible executive talent that can own strategy, own execution, and even lead teams.

They also make sure you don’t miss one of the fastest growing segments of the workforce, as the fractional workforce has seen 100 to 5,000% growth depending on how you look at the data. It’s a workforce that is growing globally as well, with the US seeing a 300% increase in fractional demand, while Asia isn’t far behind.

This section of Market Map highlights leading fractional flexible talent platforms. Fractional flexible talent platforms help you find the right fractional flexible talent, structure the right contracts, triage any problems, potentially be the employer of the record, and help you build out your fractional talent strategy.

What’s important when evaluating event professional flexible talent solutions? At Human Cloud we recommend weighting these factors based on your own unique requirements.

  1. Founder-Market-Fit – Has the founding team, or CEO, been on the buyer, or production side of their specialty?
  2. Support – How well does the platform support your needs, from scoping, to planning, to sourcing, to management?
  3. Transparency – Are the fees clear? Are the service level terms realistic? Do you have a direct relationship with the individual worker(s)?

There are many more factors that Human Cloud can help you evaluate.
