Mckinsey: How to clearly connect your top talent to value
TalentMatch allows executives to visualize the most important information about leaders of today and tomorrow to connect them to roles that create value.
As we facilitated the fifth weekly meeting to identify our client’s top talent prospects, it quickly became clear that the binders we printed, detailing available talent and critical future roles, were being entirely ignored by the executives gathered. Instead, our client gravitated immediately to the digital, interactive app we had just introduced into the meetings. The new app, called TalentMatch and developed by McKinsey, took center stage.
This unique visualization technology brought together information about the success criteria for specific roles and reviewed them side-by-side with talent in the organization. It enabled senior executives – in this case, our client’s CEO, COO, CFO and CHRO – to visualize the most important information about their leaders of today and tomorrow and connect employee talent that would create value in the long term.
This sort of information gathering and assessment is increasingly critical since an organization’s ability to create value hinges disproportionately on few critical roles that may or may not reside at the top of the org chart. HR professionals also say it explains why talent matching grows in prominence as there’s an acute shortage of talented professionals on a global level creating a talent gap at the top of many organizations.
Through McKinsey’s TalentMatch solution, leadership sees clearly the strengths of star talent, flags career-development needs and matches that talent to critical roles. It also enables interactive digital experiences that make paper profiles unnecessary.
