Human ResourcesIntegrated Talent Management from Attraction to Succession
Talent processes are typically owned by different people who each optimise their own stage, so recruitment hires for a role development never supports and succession discovers there is nobody ready. This course connects them. Delegates work through workforce planning as the input the whole chain depends on, employer positioning and attraction that describes the organisation as it is, and selection that predicts performance rather than interview skill. Onboarding is covered as the point where most early attrition is decided. Development and internal mobility follow, including the manager behaviours that make mobility possible. Performance and potential are treated separately, because conflating them is the most common talent error. Succession planning and building genuine bench strength are addressed. The course closes on measuring the system end to end rather than stage by stage.
