Talent Intelligence

Talent Intelligence advises the Board, CEO and senior HR executives of leading global companies on how to achieve market leadership through the deployment and application of integrated talent intelligence solutions. We use innovative research and thinking on succession planning and leadership risk with actionable insights in to the organizational structures and talent inventory of competitors and lateral companies that help our clients shape strategic alignment, improve operational performance and sustain competitive advantage. There are 3 primary service offerings that Talent Intelligence provides for our clients:

• Leadership Risk Management
• Talent Growth Planning
• Talent Due Diligence (M&A)

 

Leadership Risk Management

Leadership Risk Management (LRM) is our flagship solution.
We partner with a restricted number of clients per industry sector on a long term contractual basis. Our consultant teams are outstanding and are complemented by our proprietary 'Talent Intelligence Cycle' and smart web-based technology. It is a formidable combination that delivers trusted best possible advice to our clients.

The key to our success as the market leaders in LRM and succession planning are the steps we take to gain a deep understanding of our client's strategy, business context and organizational imperatives as they apply to best practice strategic succession and talent management planning.

There are many benefits to our LRM solution and one of the most significant is the continual real-time, live feed of externally benchmarked talent into a client's succession plan.

Talent Growth Planning

Talent Growth Planning (TGP) is a natural extension of our Leadership Risk Management services.

The success of every organization is contingent on having the best and most appropriate leadership pool. The risk of not being able to fill mission critical senior roles ahead of demand (and ahead of the competition) represents a significant threat.

Our TGP services address and mitigates this threat.

Working closely with our clients in forecasting demands and leadership alignment risks, we build and manage live external talent pools benchmarked against mission critical roles. This is a strategic capability that no business can afford to be without.

 

Talent Due Diligence

Talent Due Diligence is a highly confidential service that parallels and complements the traditional due diligence process associated with Merger & Acquisition (M&A) activity. When executing a Talent Due Diligence engagement our specialist teams focus on 3 steps in the process namely:

• Pre-Merger - Highly confidential analysis and evaluation of the target company's talent inventory using covert intelligence gathering techniques.
• Integration - In-depth analysis of management immediately after a merger is announced.
• 'Dream Team'- Appraisal and benchmarking of the acquired company's existing key talent for retention strategy and succession planning integration.

The core areas of investigation that typically define and drive the three steps of Talent Due Diligence are:

• Structure & Composition of the Board and Leadership Team
• Culture Analysis
• Identification of Key Contributors (High Potentials; High Performers; Rising Stars.

The specific requirements and deliverables are scoped and agreed with key stakeholders in advance of executing the engagement.
