Is it just us or are you also prone to picking your March Madness bracket based on your favorite uniform color or mascot names? As the NCAA tournament days come to a close, many of us are still playing a last-minute game of ‘bracketology,’ trying to perfect that final four selection. 

Experts say the odds of randomly picking a perfect bracket are about 1 in 9.2 quintillion. Pretty tough odds. There’s another, and arguably more important, bracket you need to consider – your team bracket. Thankfully, hiring a winning team can have better odds!

In this issue, we show you how to use benchmarking and our assessments to hire solid talent, build a winning team and amp up your team bracket.

On a different note, we had our 37^th anniversary this month. We invited our CEO and co-founder, Heather Caswell, to tell the story of Omnia. And what can be a better occasion than Women’s History Month to honor our inspiring and fearless leader who spearheads our growth and is a voice of influence in the industry.

Our Omnia First Friday Fundamentals series continues to generate traction. Our third interactive session took a deep into how businesses can apply personality insights to real-world scenarios.

Despite the better odds, it’s still essential to pay close attention to selecting your starting lineup, coaching to your team’s strengths, and adjusting your “second-string” as needed. It might require some good number crunching with real, actionable data, but it would surely pay off.

Here’s hoping your team made it to the Final Four! See you next month!
