Benefits of Talent Management
Talent management aims to guarantee that firms hire the best personnel for the position, then appropriately onboard, develop, challenge, and compensate them. Software should collect data to help drive developments and emphasize the positive aspects of working for a company (Sims, et al., 2007).
Businesses that
use effective personnel management are more likely to outperform their
competition, and public businesses that have a proven talent management
strategy even outperform their peers in terms of shareholder returns (Spies, 2016). Even I as a manager for a leading fast food outlet global chain,
we also get many benefits through “Talent Management”.
Benefits of Talent Management for Companies
Improved
recruitment:
There is still fierce competition for qualified candidates in certain
roles and businesses. Communication breakdowns with quality prospects as well
as a lack of tools to move the best candidates through the process have an
influence on the ability to hire the best people (Anwar, et al., 2014). An agile recruiting process requires processes and technologies
that aid in workforce planning, sourcing, applicant monitoring, and analytics
Diversity,
equity, and inclusion: It gives
companies a strategic and financial advantage, and it's becoming a top priority
for job seekers (King & Vaiman, 2019). For example, now allows current and past employees to score their
satisfaction with companies.
Deeper employee engagement: Good onboarding, learning, and development
processes increase employee engagement. Talent management functionality, such
as creative performance management, is crucial for deepening employee
engagement (Anwar, et al., 2014). Fast pulse and
annual employee engagement surveys, as well as data collection and easy
integration with other data to correlate employee engagement KPIs to financial
measurements, are examples of related technology that can help ensure the
effectiveness of employee engagement programs (Sumarto & Rumaningsih, 2021).
Minimize attrition: Turnover metrics are crucial
because they reveal a plethora of flaws across the talent management process (Anwar, et al., 2014). By being able to
view, for example, turnover by manager, demographic trends, and more, talent
management systems assist in collecting and making it simple to track and
analyze data that will point to causes of attrition (King & Vaiman, 2019).
Better succession planning: Senior executives
frequently possess specific knowledge that is crucial to the successful
completion of key business activities (Anwar, et al., 2014). Without a
codified mechanism for passing this information, the company could be in
serious trouble, thus succession planning is essential (King & Vaiman, 2019). Everyone in a
corporation will retire or leave at some point. By leveraging data to display
bench strength, link skills to open positions, anticipate areas where
requirements will arise, and more, a talent management system can assist with
succession planning (Sumarto & Rumaningsih, 2021).
Benefits of Talent Management for Employees
Better onboarding experience: According to Bibb
(2016) onboarding should not begin and conclude with a PowerPoint slide because
it is the employee's first true impression of life with the organization. By
including mentors and exposing the recruit to key individuals in other
departments, organizations that regard onboarding as an important component of
the talent management process make onboarding personalized and engaging. It has
a significant impact on personnel (Sternberg & Turnage,
2017). To expedite the
benefits enrolment process, automation is essential in the onboarding process.
However, the finest talent management systems go beyond simply automating
paperwork to truly customize the onboarding experience, making it simple for
workers to find mentors, training, and other resources
More opportunities for training and reskilling:
Training programs that are effective help to recruit the top individuals. When
it comes to looking for a new job, after being employed, training programs can
assist employees to progress their careers, which is especially crucial for
more experienced professionals
Career advancement: Employees are more involved
in their work and remain with the organization longer when training and
development opportunities are linked to performance goals. Employees may easily
track their goals and be matched with the correct chances to help them advance
in their careers using talent management tools
Improved performance management: Only around a
quarter of workers believe that receiving feedback enhances their performance (Chitsaz-Isfahani, 2014). Talent
management software can assist firms in transitioning to dynamic performance
management, in which managers and employees receive more open and ongoing
feedback. It acknowledges that employees desire feedback but that much of what
they get isn't useful, and it seeks to provide them with information that will
help them address their deficiencies while also enhancing their strengths
Employee experience: All these techniques work
together to improve the entire employee experience, which is an employee's
overall feelings toward a company that decides whether they want to have a
deeper relationship with it

Hi Isuru.. Apricate your valuable points. Talent management practices ensure that the right people want to join the company and effectively bring new, talented workers into the company. Moreover, talented workers are identified and valued, and incentives exist to retain them (Ringo et al., 2008; Brundage and Koziel, 2010).
ReplyDeleteThank you, Indika for your valuable thoughts. Yes, I agree with you also. In certain roles and industries, there is still considerable competition for skilled applicants.

DeleteHi Isuru, agreed with your points and adding to that according to Armstrong & Taylor (2014) Talent management is concerned not only with obtaining and keeping the number and quality of staff required but also with selecting and promoting people who ‘fit’ the culture and the strategic requirements of the organization. Further, objective is therefore to ensure that a firm achieves competitive advantage by recruiting, retaining and developing more capable people than its rivals.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Lakshan for your valuable thoughts. Yes, I agree with you also. The importance of turnover metrics is that they highlight a slew of faults in the talent management process (Anwar, et al., 2014). Talent management systems assist in collecting and making it simple to track and analyze data that will point to causes of attrition by allowing users to see, for example, turnover by the manager, demographic patterns, and more (King & Vaiman, 2019).
DeleteWell explained Isuru, also talent management is a strong plea for better business performance. Psychologically, when the employee is placed in the right position surely, he/she will have a better business outcome. The Process Perspective focuses on practices needed to optimize workers’ accomplishments within organizations. The core belief is that future success depends on an organization having an appropriate process for talent to achieve its potential (Shadiya M. 2014).
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ganith for your valuable thoughts. Yes, I agree with you because according to Bibb (2016), talent management is a powerful argument for improved business results. When an individual is positioned in the appropriate situation psychologically, he or she will almost certainly have a better business consequence. The Process Perspective focuses on the processes that are required to maximize the accomplishments of employees within businesses. The basic concept is that an organization's future success is contingent on having a proper mechanism in place for talent to reach its full potential.
DeleteHi Isuru, Farndale et al. (2014) mentions that Talent is identified as a key success factor for increasing and sustaining organizational performance because it includes an individual’s capabilities, experience, knowledge, intelligence, and qualifications, ability to learn and grow.

DeleteHi Isuru, it is well explained. Thus, the manager needs to transform into a leader, which helps potential talent to progress employee skills and inspiration (Mujtaba, 2009). Mujtaba and Sungkhawan (2009) recommend four types of key competencies a leader should possess to manage a diverse talent including organizing ability, persuading skills, intellectuality and inspiring outlook.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Thiloka for your valuable thoughts. Yes, I agree with you because the manager must evolve into a leader who can assist potential talent in developing their talents and inspiring others (Mujtaba, 2009). Mujtaba and Sungkhawan (2009) suggest that a leader should have four important characteristics in order to manage a diverse workforce: organizational ability, persuasion skills, intellectuality, and an inspiring outlook.

DeleteA pool of talent ensures a continuous supply of high performers in key roles. Talented people possess special gifts, abilities and aptitudes which enable them to perform effectively. Hiring and maintaining these talented people is expensive, so existing talent must be developed through training and mentoring by developing and executing talent retention strategies (Vaamonde et al., 2018).

Thank you for sharing your useful insights, Ravi. Yes, I concur with you. Turnover metrics are important because they reveal a host of flaws in the talent management process (Anwar, et al., 2014). By allowing users to view, for example, manager turnover, demographic tendencies, and more, talent management systems assist in collecting and making it simple to track and analyze data that will point to causes of attrition (King & Vaiman, 2019).
