We advise the world’s leading organizations on how to achieve better results through talent.
Succession Planning
Right talent, right time, right place. It’s a simple mantra but far more difficult for most companies to make real. Our science-based and simple process and tools will give your executives confidence that your talent review and succession planning processes will produce a deep bench of diverse leaders.
Make your company’s development processes fast, fair and transparent by using experience maps. An experience map describes what it takes to grow and advance in any functional area. Using experiences, rather than competencies, makes this approach easy for managers and employees to understand and apply.
We provide deep, science-based insights about your HR and talent strategy, structure, people and practices. Our assessments include specific, practical guidance for how to elevate those elements and drive greater value through talent.
We build simple, powerful talent practices based on the strongest science of human behavior. Our design approach condenses months of work into weeks, producing highly tailored talent processes and strategy.
Our approach to creating HR and talent strategy emphasizes an active partnership with your senior HR leaders, a disciplined set of conversations to map business strategy to people needs and a prioritization process that separates the essential few strategic planks from the important others.
A talent philosophy is the foundation for every talent practice in your organization. It details your executive team’s point of view on performance, behaviors, accountability, transparency, and differentiation. That clear point of view means that managers can easily explain the outcomes of talent processes and employees know that talent decisions are made using a consistently and equitably applied approach.
Accelerate your leaders’ development with the only tool that tells them exactly what, and how, to improve. The OPTM360 doesn’t assess – it develops. It’s simple to take, fully customizable and gives your leaders a focused, prioritized report with specific advice about how to optimize their performance and behaviors.
