Federal Human Capital Survey Results: Leadership and Knowledge Management
Federal Human Capital Survey Results: Results-Oriented Performance Culture
Talent Management: A Closer Look • The standard for success in talent management is to close competency gaps and make progress…it is not meant to happen overnight. • Talent Management’s two Critical Success Factors promote the benefits of one another and help an organization eliminate gaps in skills, knowledge, and competencies • Required outcome metrics assess organization’s targeted efforts and talent management capability, employee satisfaction, and organizational compliance with merit system principles.
Talent Management: Critical Success Factors • Recruitment and retention are co-dependent; the success of one influences and affects the success of the other. • To exemplify this: • An organization that is unable to recruit a diverse and qualified workforce will invariably experience difficulty retaining its employees. • The lack of a strategic recruitment strategy will challenge the proper placement of new employees, increase dissatisfaction of current employees, and negatively impact workforce retention.
Talent Management: A Closer Look RECRUITMENT
Talent Management: Required Metrics • How will we know when we get there? • Four Required Outcome Metrics help measure an organization’s Talent Management System: • Competency Gaps Closed for Mission-Critical Occupations [Organization] • This metric will prompt an organization to conduct a gap analysis to determine competency needs, which informs that organization’s targeted recruitment efforts. • Bottom Line: Know what you need before you go out and find it.
Talent Management: Required Metrics • How will we know when we get there? • Four Required Outcome Metrics help measure an organization’s Talent Management System: • Questions from Annual Employee Survey about Organizational Capacity [Employee Perspective] • Provides an organization with an employee-level assessment of whether the talent pool is appropriate to achieve mission goals. • Bottom Line: Workforce is competent and confident in themselves and each other.
Talent Management: Required Metrics • How will we know when we get there? • Four Required Outcome Metrics help measure an organization’s Talent Management System: • Questions from Annual Employee Survey about Employee Satisfaction [Employee Perspective] • Allows an organization to determine the extent to which its employees are satisfied with their job. • Bottom Line: Employees are satisfied with the important aspects of their job.
Talent Management: Required Metrics • How will we know when we get there? • Four Required Outcome Metrics help measure an organization’s Talent Management System: • Merit-Based Execution of the Talent Management System [Merit System Compliance] • Allows an organization to assess whether the tools it is using to manage talent are in compliance with merit system principles. • Bottom Line: Talent Management System is fully compliant with laws, rules, and regulations.
Talent Management: Suggested Metrics How will we know when we get there? Five Suggested Metrics provide additional visibility: Employee Turnover – statistics AND a reason for leaving Employee Turnover during Probationary Period – what is the impact of the probationary period, and is the reason for leaving voluntary or involuntary? Time to Hire – helps determine efficiency of the hiring process Management Satisfaction with Hiring Process – not a “time to hire” metric, rather it assesses whether strategies achieve goals Applicant Satisfaction with Hiring Process – do applicants have a favorable impression of the process?
Talent Management: In Summary • What Does Success Look Like? • When the Critical Success Factors are effectively implemented, an organization will see progress in Talent Management. • Competency gaps are closed, resulting in a workforce capable of performance excellence • Senior leaders and managers are involved in the strategic recruitment and retention initiatives and apply the necessary focus and resources to achieve related goals • Recruitment results in a sufficient pipeline of qualified applicants • Flexible compensation strategies are used in both recruiting and retention • Quality of work/life programs are provided and address obstacles to recruitment and retention, putting the organization in position to be successful in managing talent
