Building a Global Talent Management Strategy

In today’s marketplace, going global is more necessity than luxury, as businesses regularly find customers, suppliers and partners from all over the map. That broader focus for business requires a global talent management strategy to properly support a global initiative.

We’ll show you what a global talent management strategy consists of, how to build one that delivers measurable business outcomes and how to deploy to a diverse global workforce. During this interactive webinar, Heidi Spirgi, co-founder and president of Knowledge Infusion, will walk you through the process and steps organizations need to go through to build and deploy a global talent management strategy:

  • How to tie your talent management strategy to business initiatives.
  • The importance of developing a long-term talent management strategy to have better business results.
  • How a successful talent management strategy is one designed for the workforce, not the HR department.
  • Why HR departments cannot focus on “go live” when deploying talent management solutions, but rather must focus on user adoption and outputs, ensuring the new system is driving outcomes aligned with the business, not HR goals.

Onboarding Best Practices Webinar

Many onboarding programs are off-target. They result in false starts, wrong match up of employees and needs, longer competency build-up and delayed contributions to actual operational performance. It spells out higher costs and lost opportunities for the organization. One apparent cause is that most onboarding programs often focus on the acquisition of knowledge and skill, while the environment for immediate learning, performance, tracking and accelerated contributions is often deferred to a later phase or as an afterthought.

Join us for this webinar, as we help you get the mission-critical onboarding off to the right start. Dr. Ray Jimenez outlines a total approach for organizations that combines learning, performance and metrics to help all employees perform faster and contribute more quickly, all at lower costs to the business.

In this webinar, you will learn:

  • How to capture your top performers’ profiles and use these as benchmarks in selecting new employees, cutting time between hiring and job performance.
  • How to design learning structures that include operational demands on Day One of the onboarding program , thereby providing a seamless and faster transition to the job;
  • How to develop a metrics system that integrates learning activities and performance data to increase the feedback and assessment loop from learning, on-the-job performance, coaching and fast-tracking.

Ray Jimenez, PhD is Chief Architect for Vignettes Learning. He was a PricewaterhouseCoppers (PWC) management consultant for learning and systems implementation. His client list covers Neiman Marcus, Darden Restaurants, Pearson, NASA, Cisco, US Department of State, and others. He is the author of 3-Minute eLearning, Scenario-Based Learning, Micro-Performance Systems, and Story Impacts. Ray is also systems architect developing software in social learning performance applications.

The Next Evolution in Leadership Development

Why is most leadership development still stuck in the ages of Aristotle and Socrates? Given the need for business leaders to be well-rounded professionals with global, multimedia perspectives, why is the “sage on stage” still such a common method for developing leaders?

In this complimentary webinar, workforce learning expert Ed Cohen will provide five ideas for evolving leadership development. As the former CLO for global businesses like Booz Allen Hamilton and Satyam School of Leadership, Ed will show you why leadership development should be a process rather than a program. You’ll get the chance to interact with Ed as he provides concrete examples from his work in the USA, Europe and Asia, and helps you ensure your own leadership development is delivering full value.

You will learn:

  • How leadership development is more than training.
  • Ways in which Web 2.0 is evolving leadership development.
  • Practical ideas that can be implemented immediately.
  • How to align learning with today’s leadership needs.

eCornell will be hosting a no-cost educational webinar with Training Industry, Inc. in December.
