Most talent management approaches fall short of the mark when it comes to improved strategy execution and organizational effectiveness. We spend way too much time and energy focusing on individual talent and capability, ignoring the more important issues of organizational talent and capability.

Where should we start when improving talent processes? Leaders responsible for talent-related initiatives only have so much time and energy. If we don’t focus primarily on the issues that matter most for business success, we run a very high risk that our managers and leaders won’t be engaged in what we want them to do. Even worse, the business results could suffer, increasing the chances of cutbacks in budget dollars and wholescale de-emphasizing of talent development while people focus exclusively on righting the ship of business performance.

This webcast will introduce you to a systems approach to measuring and maximizing the impact of talent management. Based on his August 2016 TD at Work, "Measuring and Maximizing the Impact of Talent Development," presenter Alec Levenson presents a framework and step-by-step approach to improve the impact of talent management and development.
