That is as true for the human side of the business as it is for making investment decisions about machines\, technology\, or even capital. Systematically and strategically picking the best people\, and developing them to make them even more productive\, is not something to be put off until a rainy day. It is not something that would be “nice to do” when time permits. It is\, instead\, essential to gaining and sustaining competitive advantage. \nWhile traditional “talent management” programs have focused on attracting\, developing\, retaining and positioning the best High Potential (HiPo) workers\, technical talent management focuses on attracting\, developing\, retaining\, positioning and transferring the knowledge of the best High Professional (HiPro) workers. HiPros are the “go to” people\, the in-house experts\, on business processes\, problems\, customers or issues. Traditional succession planning and traditional talent management programs have ignored the critically important HiPro group. \nSuccessful organizations of the future will not be those with the most advanced technology or the most liquid capital. They will\, instead\, be those that are systematically managing and developing talent—including technical talent–to gain and sustain competitive advantage. \nMany HR practitioners are faced with the need to coordinate the start-up of a comprehensive talent management system. However\, they often wonder where to start and what to do. This session will provide a detailed approach to guide that start up. While that approach may need to be modified and aligned with each corporate culture\, it provides enough details for you to prepare and implement a project plan to implement the talent management system. It goes beyond that traditional focus to add a new\, special element—that is\, a focus on leveraging the knowledge of HiPros. \nTarget Audience\nThis workshop is well suited for managers responsible for starting up and/or implementing technical talent management programs. \nKey Learning Objectives\n\nDetermine whether you have top management support\nLink talent plans to HR plans and organizational strategy\nDescribe the lifecycle of talent management systems and how they influence establishing and maintaining a talent management system\nReview the essential components of a talent management system and plan for adding or revising components\n\nReview how technical talent management differs from\, and is similar to\, traditional—that is\, management-focused—talent management\n\nPrepare a project plan to implement a technical talent management system\n\nIdentify and develop technical competencies\n\nExamine the essential components of a performance management system as part of a technical talent management effort\n\nDetermine how to identify HiPros\nDescribe how to leverage the knowledge of HiPros and how to transfer that knowledge\n\nReview effective recruiting and retention strategies for HiPros\n\nEnquiry Form\n\n \n \n SalutationMr.Miss.Mrs.Mdm.Dr.Prof.Capt.Name\n \n \n \n First\n \n \n \n \n Last\n \n \n PhoneEmail\n \n CompanyAdditional Comments:CAPTCHA URL:https://www.opuskinetic.com/training/effective-technical-talent-management/ LOCATION:Virtual Instructor Led Training (VILT) CATEGORIES:Big Data, AI & Cybersecurity,Corporate, Business Management and HR END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;VALUE=DATE:20210315 DTEND;VALUE=DATE:20210320 DTSTAMP:20260601T141406 CREATED:20201022T031752Z LAST-MODIFIED:20210225T055526Z UID:10001082-1615766400-1616198399@www.opuskinetic.com SUMMARY:Introduction to Petroleum Geology DESCRIPTION:About this Training Course\nThis is a basic course that explains petroleum geology in elementary scientific principles.
