Context
Human Resources and Talent Management have never been more important
In a new era post covid where the war for talent is fierce, Human Resources and Talent Management have never been
more important to attract, develop and retain top talent.
According to a recent McKinsey survey, superior talent is up to 8 times more productive than average talent. In other
words, the relationship between quality of talent and business performance is dramatic.

Problem
The HR function is often barely contributing to organizational performance
Over the past 10 years, our team of ex-McKinsey, Deloitte & BCG Management Consultants have noticed that, in many
companies, the HR function was barely contributing to organizational performance.
According to the survey “War for talent” conducted by McKinsey, a whopping 82 percent of companies don’t believe they
recruit highly talented people. For companies that do, only 7 percent think they can keep their talented people. More
alarmingly, only 23 percent of managers and senior executives active on talent-related topics believe their current
acquisition and retention strategies will work.
…recruit highly …know who are high …retain high …develop people …quickly remove low
talented people and low performers performers quickly and effectively performers

Human Resources and Talent Management Toolkit - Structure
The Toolkit includes a 6-phase approach that we have built and refined over the past 20 years through constant trial and error. The good news is that you don’t have to waste
your time, energy and money going through that lengthy trial-and-error process yourself. You can simply leverage our work and customize it based on the specificities of your
organization.
