At Talent Innovations we understand the new term "talent management" to mean the strategic and proactive management of your current people and HR processes to achieve your organisation's future strategy.
You can leave this to your line management with HR giving "support"and "advice" like most organisations but we assert that, unless someone assumes specific accountability for the strategic deployment and development of your people, (and it helps to have a specific "Programme"), then you cannot trust that your people will meet the needs of the future sufficiently to ensure guaranteed success. If your organisation's future is worth working for then it is worth developing an effective talent management strategy as well as a workable measurable plan to achieve it.
It looks different for each organisation and the critical question to answer is - what should be within your programme to ensure your organisation's aims will be achieved — what is necessary? And what is sufficient? And then, what could it look like? There are usually many possible solutions that have already been tried and tested so it then becomes important to craft your programme with your leaders so there is 100% commitment and alignment with the organisational drivers.
It is easy to focus on what needs to happen to achieve this year's goals — especially when this year's goals do not seem very easy! It is particularly easy to not take action today when that action might hinder current operational needs. However, not taking action today on strategic talent management issues will impact the shape of "tomorrow's people" and the likelihood of future success. These actions generate sustainability and a foundation for long term results. It takes vision and long term thinking to make these commitments. Only worth bothering about if these issues are of concern to you or your stakeholders.
You get a clarity on where you are going, your top people get increased motivation and commitment and you get an empowering position in which your leaders can stand — being clear they are creating the future. It is likely to improve performance in the way that works for the organisation and also, to improve retention (by increasing it or decreasing it depending on what is appropriate). It is an opportunity for HR to take the lead and make a difference, to be visible and accountable. Strategic Talent Management is best lead by someone outside of traditional line management so it is perfectly positioned for ambitious HR professionals. Creating a talent management programme requires top level leadership and contribution at the highest levels in your organisation. Difficult to achieve if you have never done it before so Talent Innovations Ltd can help you to do this.
