The following material
on the subject of Talent Management
is entirely original and is our own work.
It is based on our own practical experience as practitioners and consultants.
Strategic People Management & Talent Acquisition.

It is essential to clarify the specific meanings being given to a number of frequently used and important terms when they are being used in the context of Talent Management.
The meanings of terms - a persistent problem in the context of Talent Management
This is because some of the key terms employed in the context of Talent Management also get used frequently within “common parlance”.
In the context of Talent Management, however, such terms are given specific “technical”meanings that are different from their “common parlance” meanings.
Furthermore, sometimes when being used in “common parlance”, some of these wordscan stimulate quite strong emotions, deriving from personal values and beliefs around human capability and equality, inclusion /exclusion, “elites” etc.
e.g. “potential”, “high-potential”, “talent”, “capabilities”, “key people”, “key roles”.
Unfortunately, there is no universal, common view on what these specific “technical” meanings are.
Instead, each individual organisation or (thinker in the field) has to clarify (and reach agreement on) the meanings being given to the terms being used within their specific approach to Talent Management.

What does the term “Talent Management” mean? (1)
It is widely believed that to maintain and strengthen organisational competitiveness/effectiveness
and to enable the delivery of any new activities/growth/change envisaged within strategic plans,
organisations have to try to employ capable, high-performing people in all areas.
Talent Management however, is usually more focused than this.
It is about trying to ensure the continual availability of a population of appropriately talented
and motivated people able to undertake and perform well in an organisation’s Key Roles.
This may include roles that do not presently exist, but which the organisation will need to create
in order to meet future challenges.

• Identifying and Understanding “Key Roles”
• Identifying and Understanding Individuals’ “Talent”
• Making judgments about Individuals’ “Potential” (in terms of Key Roles / Organisational Levels)
• Creating & implementing Personal Development Plans for people in the “Key Talent” population (and/or “Retention Plans”).

“Key Roles”
A central aspect of Talent Management is that, given finite resources, the organisation has to decidewhich people in particular it should focus its efforts (and investment) on - in terms of attracting, developing and retaining them.
To enable it to make such decisions, the organisation needs to identify the set of “Key Roles” which are critical to its ability to maintain & strengthen competitiveness and to deliver its strategic goals.
It needs then to understand the demands of these roles and the skills and other characteristics neededby effective incumbents.
The driving logic is that the organisation should focus its efforts (and investment) on attracting, developing and retaining people who can perform these “Key Roles” effectively now, or who canreasonably be expected to be able to perform them in the near, mid, or long-term future.
“Key Roles” are: • senior leadership roles
• other “very high-impact” technical/specialist roles.

Overleaf is an overview diagram showing the various elements involved in:
a) reaching a sensible and ethical view about the capabilities and characteristics a person has (referred to as their “talent”)
b) reaching a sensible and ethical judgment about the probability of that person becoming capable of successfully undertaking “Key Roles” within the organisation at some given point in the future (referred to as their “potential”).

Judgment made about individual’scapacity for developing specificother capabilitiesand of performing well in future seniorleadership or other very “high-impact”roles – given certain development opportunities & activities.
Note:
Judgment on likelihood of suitable “Key Roles”or “Development Roles” becoming available takes place within Succession Planning process

What does the term “Talent Management” mean? (2)
The terms
• “Talent Management”
• “Talent Management Framework”
• “Talent Management System”
are also given to the set of “policy and practices clusters” that companies develop and utilise in order to identify, attract, retain and develop capable, high-performing people for their Key Roles.
It is now regarded as “good practice” for organisations to develop a Talent Management Framework.
The policy and practices clusters which can constitute a Talent Management Framework are discussed further below.

SOME COMPANIES CHOOSE TO VIEW ONLY SOME OF THESE CLUSTERS AS FALLING WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THEIR OWN PARTICULAR TALENT MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK.
e.g. Company X sees it’s own Talent Management Framework as consistingof 3 key elements. And, it chooses not to see Compensation & Benefitsas an integrated part of its Talent Management Framework.
