Talent management
Talent management refers to a collection of strategic activities undertaken by an organization that are designed to attract, develop, excite, and retain top talent. How well organizations and leaders recruit, develop, and retain talented people is rapidly becoming a key success factor if not a new imperative for organizations in all industry sectors. More companies and corporate officers of high performing companies put improving the talent pool as one of their organization's top three priorities.
Talent management is based on the notion if not a deep conviction that better talent leads to better corporate performance and the ability to outperform competitors. As such, more managers are becoming accountable for strengthening their organization's talent pool and talent management is emerging as a critical part of every leader's job. Talent management is also recognized as a vital skill that can be learned as part of an overall human resource management strategy and workforce development strategy that is spearheaded by an organization's senior vanguard.
A successful talent management strategy should be closely aligned with an organization's recruitment, performance management and development goals. Success hinges on clearly identifying the talents and skills that are needed to fulfill the organization's mission. From this perspective, it is critically important that an organization build a clear definition of what it really means by talent throughout the organization - and implement effective strategies for managing top talent.
