Putting People First: How to Create an Employee-Centric Talent Development Strategy
What people competencies does your organization need in order to thrive? What are the skill gaps you need to address? What framework for promotions and advancement will work best for your company?
These are just some of the typical questions many employers ask when they start to create a talent development strategy. They’re also the wrong questions to ask — at least at first. That’s because they place the company at the heart of the strategy. But a far better approach is to begin by putting your people at the center of your efforts.
That’s exactly what Nikki Cannon recently did at her organization. Nikki rewrote the unwritten rules of talent development by truly listening to employees. Join her as she reveals the steps she took to build an employee-centric approach to growing people at her company. You’ll learn how to:
-
Tap into individuals’ stories, ideas, and emotions to help them succeed.
-
Partner with senior leadership by building authentic connections
-
Design virtual sessions for employees to discuss their needs
-
Gain valuable insights that go beyond what you’d get from engagement surveys
-
Break down silos between L&D, D&I, and employee engagement functions
This is an ideal opportunity to find out how you can mesh talent development and engagement to design a more effective, efficient, and impactful strategy to grow your people — and by extension, your company.
