Develop a Talent Management Framework

Break down silos with an integrated talent management model.

  • Organizations often struggle to make the most of a talent management framework despite its clear benefits.
  • Organizations often rush to implement a full portfolio of talent management programs without reflecting on which ones are really needed to support their organizational objectives.
  • Beyond this, talent management programs regularly exist in silos, resulting in an inefficient use of resources, duplication of effort, and a limited ability to strategically leverage talent.

Executive Summary

Critical Insight

  • Talent management requires an integrated approach that prevents siloed practices and delivers on key talent and organizational objectives.

Impact & Result

  • Develop an integrated talent management (TM) framework, also known as a talent management model, that purposefully selects and aligns TM programs (i.e. competency framework, performance management, high-potential, succession planning, career pathing, job rotations) to the needs of the organization.
  • Reduce inefficient silos by identifying intentional connections between TM programs and peripheral HR programs and processes (e.g. learning & development, talent acquisition, total rewards).

Research & Tools

1. Identify the TM purpose

Identify stakeholders, create a project team, and review strategic documents to uncover TM needs and define the TM purpose.

2. Review the TM framework

Evaluate the effectiveness of existing TM programs, identify which programs need to be modified or maintained, and whether any need to be added, and then assess the effort of TM program changes.

3. Identify linkages in the TM framework

Map critical milestones and assess linkages between current TM programs, and prioritize and create a roadmap to address changes to the TM framework.

4. Plan to launch

Create a TM scorecard to track success, validate the scorecard and roadmap with stakeholders, create an annual TM calendar and detailed project plans for individual TM programs, and then plan to evaluate and iterate the TM framework.
