13. Talent review
Talent review in a simple form is
all about succession planning, creating a leadership pipeline and making sure
you have the right people in the right roles at the right times. This includes:
-
Reviewing
performance, aspirations and potentials.
Bear in mind that everyone has potential. So, it’s all about finding the right paths
for each individual.
-
Assessing
readiness for progression and development needs
-
Identifying
the people and the gaps
-
Making
sure that all is done fairly, transparent and consistently
Formal
appraisal is not just an opportunity to manage performance, but also the
perfect time to:
-
Give
positive feedback
-
Say
thank you for a job well done
-
Show
gratitude for discretionary effort
-
Help
people fulfill their contribution
-
Discuss
development
-
Harness
ideas and feedback
-
Plan
for the future
-
Help
clarify the way forward
-
Re-motivate,
re-invigorate, and inspire
Part of the challenge is that people
aren’t managing performance and other issues as they go along. Growing the whole person and not just
developing them to deliver the needs of the business. To grow people, you need to understand them,
and treat each one as an individual.
The
three (3) important things are
1. Make regular appraisals and ongoing
reviews part of your DNA, putting the work in to enable really rich one-to-one discussions.
2. Make appraisals a positive event,
enabling people to drive their own progress
3. Use a great system to plan for the
future
