    3. Balancing Individual & Organizational Needs

    4. Pre-employment personnel selection systems to optimize employee satisfaction and productivity Identification of “high potentials” and a talent management pipeline at all job levels A talent management system emphasizing employee development Proper alignment of employee’s skills, abilities, interests, and experiences with current and future job openings Retention of talent and reduction of voluntary turnover Organizational Career Management Issues

    5. The 2000 Retention Practices Survey (SHRM) reported an average 17% annual voluntary quit rate across 473 organizations (highest was 44.9% in hospitality and lowest was 14.9% in manufacturing) Cost of recruiting and training new leaders (supervisors and managers) is approximately 90-150% of the employee’s salary US Department of Labor estimates that it costs an organization approximately one-third of a new hire’s annual salary to replace a non-exempt employee Retention Costs

    6. A recent McKinsey study of 13,000 executives at more than 120 companies and case studies of 27 leading companies, revealed compelling evidence that better talent management leads to increased performance On average, companies that did a better job of attracting, developing, and retaining highly talented managers earned 22 percentage points higher return to shareholders Michels, E., Habdfield-Jones, H & Axlerod, B. (2001). The War for Talent. Harvard Business Press. Retention Factors

    7. Gallup's Employee Engagement Index reveals that, on average, about 70 percent of U.S. workers are not engaged in or are actively disengaged from their work. A recent Towers Perrin multi-company survey revealed that only half (50 percent) of employees polled said their company inspires them to do their best work, suggesting companies are performing below their potential because they are not engaging employees Retention Factors

    8. Results of two company wide employee engagement surveys were analyzed for all corporate staff for a large food service corporation for 2002 and 2004 Employees rated their own involvement with their organization and job using a benchmarked 12-item Employee Engagement Index (alpha .91) Employees were asked additional questions about retention (intention to leave in 12 months), job satisfaction and perceptions of job stress Nowack, K. (2005). Employee Engagement Matters: Relationship between Employee Engagement, Retention, Job Satisfaction and Stress Employee Engagement Study

    26. Career Profile Inventory Stages of Career Development

    27. This stage is characterized as the beginning of one's career (or new career), initial placement, the early process of "learning the ropes," figuring out what is expected from others in the organization and developing basic knowledge, skills and abilities. It The major developmental theme associated with the entry career stage might be conceptualized as “self-validation” of an individual’s skills, abilities, and potential. Career Profile Inventory Career Stage: Entry

    28. This stage is characterized by being accepted into the organization, being promoted and receiving increasingly more challenging assignments and responsibilities.

Career Profile Inventory Career Stage: Development

    29. This stage is characterized by self-satisfaction with previous organizational efforts and accomplishments, a re-assessment of career/life goals and developing a greater balance between work, family, children, recreation, leisure The major developmental theme associated with the balance career stage might be conceptualized as “self-fulfillment” with an individual’s work/family activities, experiences and accomplishments.

OH# 25 There’s now solid research on how best to develop people (e.g. CCL) and we’d like you to consider this research when preparing your draft development plan. Briefly, the highest potential to learn is from experiences you have here at Amgen and targeted activities outside of work such as community, religious or school involvement. The next most impactful way to learn is through feedback experiences such as this 360 degree process and coaching or mentoring opportunities. Finally, the old standby, classroom training can be useful in certain instances such as when you start a new job and need to quickly “download” a lot of skills and knowledge on a certain topic. This research is important to remember when you’re preparing your own development plan AND when you coach people on your staff. [Facilitators: Review this and then you may want to ask participants for a few examples of what they have done for themselves or others that have been powerful development initiatives.] OH# 25 There’s now solid research on how best to develop people (e.g. CCL) and we’d like you to consider this research when preparing your draft development plan.
