Within the umbrella of the concept “company” there is great diversity and complexity that is normally a challenge to manage.
Companies (not sole proprietorships) are systems whose dynamics make it necessary to coordinate several work areas that, in many cases, are very different from each other. Ultimately, the reason for this type of organization is the division of labor: each function is carried out by experts in that field, and there is no one person who can do everything at once.
Therefore, it is essential to know how to manage the talent within any company well. Not doing so means losing work capacity, either by losing professionals who add a lot of value, or by not knowing how to take advantage of the skills of those who are already part of the staff. That is why, throughout this article, we will see what they are. the main keys to talent management in the context of the company
Talent management in the business context
These are the basic principles of talent management in the business world; Taking into account that each organization is unique and has its own characteristics and needs, they can be applied to most cases.
1. Detect the main areas of training
One of the characteristics of talent is that it is composed of latent traits in people In most cases it is not expressed in very striking ways, but rather in subtle ways, given that the person has not had the opportunity to train.
On the other hand, When developing training programs it is essential to know how to direct them to specific objectives and capable of generating a positive impact for as many people as possible within the target group. Otherwise, not only is time and resources wasted, but it also generates discomfort and gives rise to a bad work environment.
2. The importance of long-term projects
To maintain the ability to retain talent in the workforce it is necessary to offer the possibility of participating in a long-term project.
Obviously, this does not imply making promotion promises directed indiscriminately to everyone and that cannot necessarily be fulfilled; You have to know how to see beyond the idea that the only reason people are in their jobs is because they hope to be able to climb positions on the organizational chart. There are other ways to propose an exciting project, and knowing how to explore them is part of what distinguishes the best experts in Business Management and Human Resources.
3. Creation of job profiles
It’s not all about finding the right person to fill a certain role; many times, the most crucial thing is knowing how to think about the position to occupy, design the role of the professional that is needed
4. Sensitivity to know how to review the workflow
Sometimes the potential of the most talented workers goes untapped because they remain in a workflow that doesn’t make sense. Something as simple as having to wait two days for the head of another department to approve using a graphic element every time you want to develop a design can ruin work that would otherwise be satisfactory.
That’s why It is important to know how to pay attention to these warning signs to review these possible failures and promote changes in the organization of work.
5. Exploitation of technological potential
There are different technological tools capable of taking talent selection and retention to another level. Thus You not only have to know how to use the most used ones, but also be up to date with the latest changes introduced in the market
