What the heck is Talent 2.0?\u00a0 Well first of all, it\u2019s not here yet.\u00a0 Second of all, it probably makes more sense to define Talent 1.0 before I can theorize on Talent 2.0.\u00a0 Talent Management 1.0 is simply what we have today.\u00a0 It\u2019s the thought that old school performance management, compensation administration, and succession planning can be automated using heavily transactional software applications.\u00a0 We absolutely have succeeded in creating a high degree of adoption in the market that every enterprise needs talent management and needs to automate it.\u00a0 Talent Management 1.0 actually has a very high degree of success compared to prior exercises in HR technology.\u00a0 The problem is that Talent Management 1.0 didn\u2019t really solve any problems.\u00a0 It just made or talent problems more efficient.<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t know what Talent 2.0 will end up being, but here are just a couple of thoughts.\u00a0 First, we need to move from transactional processes to a more integrated version of talent between HR and the business.\u00a0 Simply automating manager processes for talent isn\u2019t enough.\u00a0 Managers still have a fundamental prolem with how talent management works, which is still \u201cold school.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Managers inherently don\u2019t know what to do with talent, and simply automating processes didn\u2019t really help them do anything but save a couple hours a year.\u00a0 They are the primary interface to talent, and until they are properly engaged in the strategy of managing talent, talent management will not be truly successful.\u00a0 Second, we need to move from simple analytics to real talent decision support.\u00a0 Today\u2019s talent management applications provide decent analytics, but I\u2019m not sure they provide enough to facilitate the type of insights we really expect out of our talent practitioners.\u00a0 Third, we need broader talent functionality that looks at our internal talent within the enterprise and views external talent in the same scope.\u00a0 Workforce planning attempts to do some of this, but ultimately talent needs to grow beyond the confines of the individual enterprise.\u00a0 Conversations are already beginning for employee talent profiles to follow them from job to job rather than staying with the employer.<\/p>\n
Once again, I don\u2019t know what Talent 2.0 ultimately looks like, but I do know that we will move beyond simple transactions.\u00a0 These are just ideas, but I\u2019m confident Talent will become more integrated with the business, and provide increasingly insightful analysis.\u00a0 What are your thoughts for Talent 2.0?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
