Talent Management For Line Managers

Programme Overview

Successful talent management and effective talent intervention does not happen on spreadsheets and applications. It happens in the daily grind of talent conversations that drive talent engagement, individual career decisions, talent development, optimal deployment, and retention. Building a ‘Frontline Advantage’ for your talent management program is about building the requisite capabilities in your line managers – who are the true owners and custodians of talent capital and drivers of the employment deal – so that whilst planned in the Boardroom, the ‘War for Talent’ is actually fought and won on the Frontlines (Battlefield). Hence, the line manager level is a very critical cog in the delivery of a successful talent management program. Organizations that attempt talent management implementations independent of line manager involvement will fail due to lack of a shared talent vision by managers. Simply put, when line managers understand the talent vision and the talent profile that the organization is developing, they can play a more meaningful role in supporting delivery of the talent agenda from the frontlines. This 2-day Programme strives to develop a talent-savvy line manager who understands the agenda, deliverables, processes, tools, frameworks and standards of your organizaton’s talent management program.
