What is an integrated talent management?Integrated talent management (ITM) refers to the management of traditional HR sub- functions (recruitment and selection, workforce planning, performance management, learning and development, reward and recognition and succession planning) in an integrated fashion to strategically leverage talent.
The cornerstone of an integrated Talent Management (ITM) System is a robust competency model that guides talent management strategy and tactics.
We learn from organisational psychology that for any organisational change effort to be successful, it must be supported by the top management of the organization.
HR Practitioners should shift their mindsets from a silo based mentality of managing HR sub-functions to a mindset of using these functions as a vehicle to build an organisational capability to attract, engage, and retain competent and committed employees.
An integrated Talent Management System enables users to pull all this information (from different HR sub-functions) together to assist decision makers to understand the depth and breadth of talent at their disposal and talent risks that they should mitigate.
