The Human Capital Institute (HCI), a global professional association and educator in talent management strategies, and Plateau, a leading provider of software for developing, managing, rewarding and optimizing organizational skills and talent, announced today that Plateau has renewed its sponsor of HCI's Manage and Develop Talent education and research track. The track is one of several topics addressed in HCI's Talent Leadership community of interest, a community HCI considers critical to organizations working to build competitive advantage.
In too many organizations today employees say that their skills and talents are underutilized as they experience barriers to mobility and opportunities within their companies, said Allan Schweyer, HCI's Executive Director. The problem isn't that their current employers don't have opportunities for them; rather, it's that few companies understand their talent well enough to effectively deploy individuals into the right jobs at the right time.
When leadership does ensure that planning and developing talent are aligned with corporate priorities, employees' productivity and passion for work rises, resulting in reduced turnover and recruitment costs and greater competitive advantage.
The Manage and Develop Talent track focuses on maximizing human capital potential and motivation by aligning work with talents, ambitions and passions. A panel of expert advisors explores next practices and initiatives in talent management, development, and optimization in market-leading companies, and examines how these actions affect competitive success. Current track advisors include Greg Zanowski, Director of Performance and Strategy Services for Plateau, as well as Leighanne Levensaler, Principal Analyst for Bersin & Associates and Holly Nordquist, Senior Vice President of Consulting Services for Right Management.
Webcasts, white papers, education, and other resources provide human capital professionals with information they need to effectively manage and develop their organizations' talent. On June 11, a Webcast titled, Creating a Performance-Driven Culture with High-Impact Management Practices will explore performance management as a compliance process that leads to a simple appraisal and salary decision.
