Survey Says:
Talent Management Cited as Top Issue for HR in 2007

Talent management is the top strategic HR issue that companies expect to face in 2007, according to a recent survey by ORC Worldwide.
Specifically, respondents say they are concerned about acquiring, developing and retaining talent at all levels of the organization.

The survey is based on responses from 35 members of the Senior HR Officers Network, MidCap Senior HR Officers Network and Human Resources Solution Network. Participating companies have operations in more than one country and have workforces ranging up to 90,000 employees.

Previous studies by ORC had found that succession planning was a top concern for organizations.

"While succession planning remains a key activity, it is clearly no longer the sole activity of talent management," the study says.

In fact, when asked about the highest-priority HR initiatives for 2007, 37.1 percent of survey respondents say talent management, while only 2 percent mention succession planning.

"While we believe that succession planning continues to be an important initiative in most organizations, the processes and programs may be in place and working well, allowing member companies to expand their focus into other areas of managing talent," the study says.

Companies have started to take a broader approach to talent management because they have begun to recognize there is a shortage of talent, particularly in industries like engineering, says Jodi Starkman, director of talent management at ORC.

"We have moved from companies beginning to think about this to actually managing the whole human supply chain," she says.

Talent management has already started to take up a lot of HR executives' time, according to the survey. Twenty-nine percent of respondents say the majority of their time was spent on talent management activities.

The second-highest priority for 2007, according to respondents, is strategic HR management. These activities include HR outsourcing, aligning HR activities with the business and implementing common global HR processes.

Twenty-three percent of respondents say that recent business growth will affect the company's HR strategy next year. Another 23 percent cite mergers and acquisitions and divestitures as a factor that will affect their HR strategies.

The biggest challenge for companies trying to create broad-based programs to attract, train and retain talent is workforce planning, Starkman says.

"Companies need to get a handle on defining their global talent demands over the next five years," she says.

Deep Release:

Network Recruiting Model Triples Efficiency in Candidate Sourcing

Recruiting report shows fundamental shift in how companies recruit.

Employers who shift from linear applicant recruiting to network recruiting can triple efficiency by doubling the candidates captured from advertising, cutting external costs through network referrals, and leveraging existing talent resources, according to a new report from TalentPen.

This fundamental shift in how companies recruit is rapidly increasing. According to TalentPen's 2006 Recruiting & Staffing study, the number of companies interested in building a private talent network increased from 38% to 66% in just six months. 46 percent of organizations did not have a sufficient quantity of candidates and of those, only 40 percent were even baseline-qualified for the position.

The paper can be downloaded at no charge by visiting the following site: http://www.talentpen.com/read_the_whitepapers.html

The TalentPen report cites where linear recruiting is reactive, wasteful and failing to meet recruiting needs, and demonstrates how corporate recruiters can easily increase efficiency by adopting the network recruiting model with circular, relational systems independent of specific job applications. Pinpointing the right candidates from a large central pool of active candidates is more likely to yield the best-fitting people, matched for a position, than a limited pool of applicants.

The report explains how to build a central talent pool that companies can create from all sources of recruiting, and nurture over time. It also provides companies with practical steps to use their brand and website to proactively attract active/passive job candidates -- even if they are never recruited.

Potential employees are evaluating a company when they evaluate a job posting, the paper notes. Simply letting them search jobs and hit the "apply" button" is a highly-impersonal process. In comparison, a talent collection system lets candidates "experience" working at a company before applying.

"Talent collection is based on the premise of digging the well before you're thirsty," states Michael Sproul, president and CEO of TalentPen. "There's a greater likelihood of finding the best match for a job, instead of just a warm body with a nice resume, if you already have an available pool of qualified, pre-screened candidates."

"Simply posting a job and requirements is not luring the candidates it once did," says Susan Govea, partner and vice president of marketing for TalentPen. "Candidates are experiencing a higher personal loyalty than ever before, meaning they know they have many options for employment, and they are going to ensure that their needs for personal security and job satisfaction are being met."
