Building Talent on Your Team or Throughout Your Organisation

"There is no way to spend too much time on obtaining and developing the best people."
(Larry Bossidy)

"The ultimate challenge of leaders who are senior managers is to develop
the next generation of leaders more capable than themselves."
(Dave Ulrich)

THE CASE:

A strong vision and strategy, a solid business plan, and secure financing mean nothing if you do not have the talent to execute. Every organisation needs a solid plan for recruiting, developing, and retaining the talent it needs to achieve its vision and execute its strategy. Talent management is not an HR issue; it is a business imperative. The McKinsey study entitled "War for Talent" found that firms with leadership depth were much more profitable than those without it. And yet, one recent Conference Board study found that only 54% of companies felt they had the leadership necessary to respond to change, and only 8% of executives rated overall leadership as excellent. Great reasons to build talent include:

  • Needing more leadership, initiative, and results at all levels of the organisation
  • Needing to develop the organisation's bench strength
  • Young talent leaving due to lack of opportunities
  • Company in aggressive growth mode and needs to develop leaders to take over new projects, new markets, new businesses…
  • Needing to develop new kinds of leaders and leadership to deal with new market realities, customer demands, employee demographics…
  • Many senior executives retiring: must prepare younger leaders to take over the reigns
  • Needing to develop leaders that can formulate new strategy, set new direction, or identify & leverage new opportunities…
  • Needing to improve team or organisational performance
