Identify Hidden Talent in your Organisation
Are you developing, retaining and inspiring your best employees? If you make redundancies, do you know which employees to keep? You can’t afford to lose the wrong people. Do you know who will replace your Baby Boomer generation when they retire?
Now, more than ever, strong leadership and the right employees will ensure business survival. You don’t want to be left exposed when Senior Managers retire or leave the company. You need to know you have adequate bench strength to seamlessly fill new positions with internal talent. They will have the business knowledge and understanding of your company, enabling them to hit the ground running. This also saves on the cost of external recruitment and a lengthy, expensive ‘on-boarding’ process.
The way people work has changed significantly in recent years. Instead of talking about structured corporate career ladders, we now talk about the career lattice. Employees want freedom to progress in any direction and in many organisations this can mean across countries too. It’s imperative organisations have a business-focused talent strategy that identifies current and future business needs whilst meeting employee demands.
Business processes need to be clearly defined and an infrastructure in place to support the delivery of strategy and constantly changing requirements.
SAPs Talent Management Suite addresses many of these challenges It can:
- Reduce recruitment costs
- Increase employee satisfaction and reduce churn
- Minimise business disruption
Many organisations have introduced competency frameworks or pay and reward schemes, but this more short term. Strategy should look further ahead allowing you to identify where the skills gaps will be in five or ten year’s time and enable you to build a strong pipeline of talent.
Case Study: Smiths News
Smiths News wanted to revolutionise its Talent Management and Succession Planning using its existing SAP HR system. Bluefin worked closely with Smiths News’ Information Systems and Human Resources departments to design and build an enhanced Succession Planning solution. This has allowed for better planning and tighter control of HR. Management can now see exactly how skills are allocated throughout the business and where there is a need to recruit. More.
