"Senior
managers will stay with a company only if they feel it has the right
culture and provides them with self-fulfilment, a sense of
accomplishment and fun." says the latest research from Henley
Management College on talent management.
However,
what about the flip side of the coin? What do companies expect
of their managers?......
"A
company will keep its senior managers only if it feels that they fit
in with its culture (values) and provide it with business acclaim,
financial success and dynamism."
Two
outlooks with a common goal but how can these be reconciled in a
corporate environment so that companies and their people can work
together to achieve their desired objectives?
A
key element in addressing this issue is to provide a
language for talent management that enables the component skills,
values, behaviours and experiences to be defined in a systematic and
consistent format that can be utilised as the basis for communication
and talent development.
