Build a Talent Scout
in WEBINAR
On-demand Webinar: Prepare yourself and your leaders for the critical transition to leadership with research, expert perspectives, and real-world stories.
Organizations know that they must have the best talent in order to succeed in a hyper-competitive and increasingly complex global economy. Along with understanding the need to hire, develop, and retain talented people, organizations must manage talent as a critical resource to achieve the best possible results. However, few, if any, organizations have an adequate supply of talent. Gaps exist at all levels. Talent is an increasingly scarce resource, so it must be managed to the fullest.
Through objective assessment and feedback, managers need to activate the potential in individuals by helping them identify their strengths and development priorities to align with current performance, tomorrow’s readiness, and future capabilities.
In this interactive dialogue with top HR leaders, we'll discuss:
- The impact and implications of a rapidly changing business landscape on our approaches to leadership potential and succession planning.
- Expert opinions on how to surface potential, activate it, and, finally, convert that potential into performance with accelerated development options.
- How managers need to move beyond relying on a few “high-potential heroes” to unleash the full potential of their organization.
- How managers can be better equipped with the tools, insights, and skills to scout for potential.
