“New” Normal: Key Talent Management Focus Areas for 2010
• Agility
• Segment Talent
• Scenario Based Workforce Plans
• Employee Engagement
• Trust = Transparency
• Leadership capabilities
Talent Management
Agility
• Be ready to make real time decisions
– Use facts rather than perceptions
– Be prepared for contingencies
– Design the organization or the organizational
processes with flexibility in mind.
Talent Management
Segment the Workforce
Value to the
Organization
Performance
Exceptional High Average Low
Mission Critical
Core
Necessary
Non-necessary
Provide development, rewards, opportunities for individual and organization
At risk: coach for performance, train for core role or manage out
Training for mission critical roles
Divest. Seek alternative sourcing
Talent Management
Scenario Based Workforce Plans
• Build agility and flexibility in managing workforce costs and capabilities
• Build workforce plan with multiple contingencies– Hiring cycles will need to be shorter – Organizations will increasingly rely on narrowly-focused teams
to bring products and projects to completion, rather than organizing those tasks into defined full-time roles.
– The use of a contingent workforce figures to be a common solution, but only for organizations that are able to understand this source of talent in ways that are different from their management of regular workers.
Talent Management
Employee Engagement :The “New” Deal
• Elements of employment deals will change (competitive base stays)
• Explore other engagement drivers to keep employee passions high and working productively– Significance– Influence– Belonging– Learning/Growth
Talent Management
Trust =Transparency
• Rebuilding trust after the crisis is most critical.
• Frequent, open, honest communications build trust
• The good, the bad and the ugly news creates credibility
• Decisions based on facts, evidence
Talent Management
Refresh Leadership Capabilities
• Alignment and buy in.• All leaders need to be equipped to lead:
– Critical thinking around complex issues
– Decision making in spite of risk/uncertainty
– Change-able
– Collaborative, communicative
– Displays personal engagement – drives others
• 10-20-70 Rule of Training
