This document discusses trust between middle managers and senior leadership in organizations. Some key points:
1) Only 36% of middle managers say they trust their business leader to a great extent, and trust declines in larger organizations.
2) Middle managers perceive their organizations as less transparent and rewarding of openness than senior leaders do.
3) High-trust managers, who trust their organization greatly, rate their organization higher on behaviors like transparency and honesty.
4) Middle managers play a vital role in building trust but often don't feel their role is valued or supported, and want leaders who communicate openly and honestly.
Human resources departments are increasingly tasked with ensuring their companies have a strong pipeline of black talent to drive transformation and address inequality. This requires HR to play a leading role in recruiting top executives and developing succession plans. As the current generation of white male managers retires, companies need candidates with 10-15 years of experience, which South Africa is still developing due to its apartheid history. To build this pipeline, HR must form partnerships with schools and colleges to proactively develop skills for the future workforce, benefiting both companies and the country. A recent report found that 42% of global business leaders believe their HR teams are underperforming at moving companies' talent forward.

This document discusses the challenges organizations face in managing four generations of employees and retaining talent. Managing generational diversity is critical for talent retention and future growth. Younger generations like Gen Y and Millennials have different expectations and were raised with new technologies, requiring organizations to develop contemporary talent management strategies. High attrition is a problem as employees often leave due to a lack of recognition. New approaches are needed to engage and align employees to inspire them to stay and achieve success.
Career management practices and programmers
Many companies today are struggling with how to meet employee expectations regarding career development and advancement opportunities at a time when organizations are delayering and growth in the U.S. has slowed. In order to address this concern, E. L. Goldberg & Associates has collected career
management benchmark information and best practices from 34 organizations, representing a wide variety of industries. A supplemental study collected data from 75 professionals regarding how they define career success. Results indicate a significant shift in defining success in terms of intrinsic satisfiers versus the traditional more objective measures of success.
The benchmarking results reveal a major call to action for employers. Employees’ perceptions of career development and opportunities is frequently one of the lowest rated items on employee surveys, and research shows this is one of the top predictors of employee engagement. Despite this fact most companies subscribe to a philosophy of career self-reliance, essentially abdicating their responsibility for career management, leaving it up to the employee to figure out.
E. L. Goldberg & Associates believes that organizations can be more proactive in career management holding managers more accountable for understanding their employees’ career aspirations and educating employees on their career options. In addition, managers need to devote time to creating challenging opportunities that will contribute to individual career growth and development. This report outlines several best practices that participating companies utilize to facilitate career
management with both high-potential employees and the broader employee population.
These practices can have an impact on changing employees perceptions as two of the more innovative companies in this study reported that they created greater retention and career development satisfaction by providing people with development experiences versus simply a promotion. It is time for organizations to change their career management philosophies and become a more proactive partner in helping employees build their career.
The global marketplace and ever-changing workforce have created the need for organizations to engage human resources practices that recognize their human capital as their major competitive advantage. In fact, the current trends emphasize the growing demand for effective, creative recruitment and retention initiatives. Most human resources executives will cite the need to stay competitive with these initiatives as one of their biggest challenges. One of the basic principles to assist with this challenge is to embrace proactive and strategic career management practices that can provide you with a strong foundation for gaining a competitive edge.

This helps ensure leadership continuity within the organization and prepares employees to take on new roles.

The document discusses how multinational companies (MNCs) in China are prioritizing leadership development programs to promote local talent into senior roles. It notes that MNCs are replacing expatriates with local hires due to lower costs and better understanding of the local market. However, local talent often lacks skills in English, strategic thinking, and understanding of corporate culture. As a result, MNCs are designing more sophisticated and tiered leadership programs using methods like overseas rotations and real projects. The goal is to develop local leaders while also improving retention of top employees through commitments to professional rewards.
Here is an overview of the most important elements which make a difference at “Top Companies for Leaders.”
Strategy - There is a clear link between the strategy of the company and the strategy of leadership development. Successful organizations closely examine which talent programs are needed and which interventions are necessary to realize their company strategy.
Involvement - The responsibility of talent development lies at the top of the organization, and top management is also actively involved in the development of future management. The top managers themselves are frequently active as mentors, coaches or trainers, and frequently share their experiences and insights. Often the CEO plays a prominent, active role in training or action learning, i.e., using high potentials coupled with experienced leaders on essential questions. Also, CEO’s are involved in the programs by means of internal communication.
Talent Pipeline – Talent development is considered as a “mission-critical” company process. The best performing companies see the filling of the talent pipeline organization-wide as a necessity. They use sharp definitions of talent (high potentials), measurable criteria and a rigorous process for to determine who belongs in the talent pool and who does not. The outcomes of this are measured with KPIs.
Ongoing Processes – The Top Companies for Leaders have incorporated management development in their business cycles. The companies think about ongoing, recurring development processes instead of one-time initiatives. Talent management has a high priority in these organizations. Much attention is given to identifying high potentials, determination of specific career paths for these high potentials, coaching and their active contribution to training and development programs. High potentials are assisted in their development by means of training, e-learning, coaching and job rotation, as well as action learning. Thanks to this approach, leadership and company development evolve continuously together.
Behavior – In these Top Companies, leaders are significantly more aware of which behavior is expected of them. This also becomes apparent in all aspects of the organization: performance management (leaders are rewarded for the degree desired behaviors are demonstrated), promotion decisions (people are only promoted when the desired behaviors are shown), recruitment and selection (leadership behavior is an essential selection criterion) and communication from the top of the organization.
Critical Objective - High potential talent is considered as a strategic advantage and the development of this talent is and the development of a robust talent pipeline is considered a critical objective for the organization’s top management.
Leadership Programs – Only leadership programs with high added value for talent development are organized.
The document discusses the business case for strategic talent onboarding. It argues that effective onboarding leads to improved business outcomes like faster time to productivity for new hires, higher employee retention rates, and decreased costs from reducing attrition.

Regular career conversations can boost employee engagement, performance, and retention. When done well, they help align employee and organizational goals and foster employee development. However, many managers avoid these conversations due to fears over unmet expectations, costs of promotions, and a lack of training in career coaching. The document argues that regular career conversations should be embedded in organizational culture to benefit both employees and companies.

Benefits Of An Effective Leadership Program EssayJessica Lopez
Tanglewood is a large retail company with stores across 12 regions locally and overseas. As many senior employees retire, Tanglewood must develop a talent management strategy to fill vacated leadership roles. An effective strategy would identify and develop high-potential employees internally and implement training programs to prepare them for promotion. A standardized approach across regions is needed while allowing for cultural differences locally. Attracting and retaining talented staff globally will help Tanglewood compete internationally.
The document discusses an approach to identifying and developing effective leaders called the P3 Leader model. The model focuses on three key areas:
1) Effective leadership outcomes that measure a leader's impact on talent and business performance.
2) Effective leadership enablers that assess inherent personal attributes that indicate potential for leadership success.
3) Effective leadership capabilities that can be developed to accelerate performance, unleash talent, and dare to lead.
The model provides a systematic way for organizations to build strong leadership pipelines by predicting potential leaders, developing the right capabilities, and measuring outcomes related to talent and business performance.
1) Getting talent on the right track requires a long term talent strategy rather than quick fixes, which can perpetuate a cycle of catching one's own tail.
2) Building a robust talent bench through a 5+ year strategy that identifies critical capabilities and allows flexibility is key to absorbing short term issues.
3) Developing a talent culture through leadership commitment, measurement, and forums for discussing talent can help ensure the right people are identified and developed for key roles.

Corporate innovation with Startups made simple with Pitchworks VC StudioGokul Rangarajan
In this write up we will talk about why corporates need to innovate, why most of them of failing and need to startups and corporate start collaborating with each other for survival
At the end of the conversation the CIO asked us 3 questions which sparked us to write this blog.
1 Do my organisation need innovation ?
2 Even if I need Innovation why are so many other corporates of our size fail in innovation ?
3 How can I test it in most cost effective way ?
First let's address the Elephant in the room, is Innovation optional ?
Relevance for customers
Building Business Reslience
competitive advantage
Corporate innovation is essential for businesses striving to remain relevant and competitive in today's rapidly evolving market. By continuously developing new products, services, and processes, companies can better meet the changing needs and preferences of their customers. For instance, Apple's regular release of new iPhone models keeps them at the forefront of consumer technology, while Amazon's introduction of Prime services has revolutionized online shopping convenience. Statistics show that innovative companies are 2.5 times more likely to have high-performance outcomes compared to their peers.
This proactive approach not only helps in retaining existing customers but also attracts new ones, ensuring sustained growth and market presence.
Furthermore, innovation fosters a culture of creativity and adaptability within organizations, enabling them to quickly respond to emerging trends and disruptions. In essence, corporate innovation is the driving force that keeps companies aligned with customer expectations, ultimately leading to long-term success and relevance.
Business Resilience
Building business resilience is paramount for companies looking to thrive amidst uncertainties and disruptions. Corporate innovation plays a crucial role in fostering this resilience by enabling businesses to adapt, evolve, and maintain continuity during challenging times. For instance, during the COVID-19 pandemic, many companies that swiftly innovated their business models, such as shifting to remote work or expanding e-commerce capabilities, managed to survive and even thrive. According to a McKinsey report, organizations that prioritize innovation are 30% more likely to be high-growth companies. Innovation not only helps in developing new revenue streams but also in creating more efficient processes and resilient supply chains. This agility allows companies to quickly pivot in response to market changes, ensuring they can weather economic downturns, technological disruptions, and other unforeseen challenges. Therefore, corporate innovation is not just a strategy for growth but a vital component of building a robust and resilient business capable of sustaining long-term success.

Many companies have perceived CRM that accompanied by numerous
uncoordinated initiatives as a technological solution for problems in
individual areas. However, CRM should be considered as a strategy when
a company decides to implement it due to its humanitarian, technological
and process-related effects (Mendoza et al., 2007, p. 913). CRM is
evolving today as it should be seen as a strategy for maintaining a longterm relationship with customers.
A CRM business strategy includes the internet with the marketing,
sales, operations, customer services, human resources, R&D, finance, and
information technology departments to achieve the company’s purpose and
maximize the profitability of customer interactions (Chen and Popovich,
2003, p. 673).
After Corona Virus Disease-2019/Covid-19 (Coronavirus) first
appeared in Wuhan, China towards the end of 2019, its effects began to
be felt clearly all over the world. If the Coronavirus crisis is not managed
properly in business-to-business (B2B) and business-to-consumer
(B2C) sectors, it can have serious negative consequences. In this crisis,
companies can typically face significant losses in their sales performance,
existing customers and customer satisfaction, interruptions in operations
and accordingly bankruptcy
2. Effective leadership at all levels
within an organisation is critical for
sustainable success. But how can you
be sure that your graduate recruits
will develop the skills needed to
meet the leadership challenges of
tomorrow?
Today’s fresh faced graduate has
always been seen as a resource
that can be developed for senior
positions of the future. Even with
the dramatic rise in the number of
graduates in recent years, one in two
graduate recruitment candidates are
considered to be potential future
leaders.1
The reasons for this are clear:
graduates bring the latest thinking,
have acquired a range of skills and
knowledge from their university
education and are likely to be
a source of innovation in any
organisation. The careful selection
and subsequent nurturing of the
best and most talented graduates
is vital for the future success of any
business.
Parity Professionals | Talent Matters!
Developing graduate talent that can make
a measurable and lasting positive impact
on organisational culture and business
success – but it requires a carefully thought
out investment strategy
3. www.parityprofessionals.co.uk
What kinds of training do graduates want?6
Technical Skills 87%
Communication 77%
Project Management 75%
Interpersonal Skills 73%
People Management 71%
However businesses may not realise
this potential for a number of reasons.
Firstly spotting those with talent, and
more crucially those with the best fit to
the needs of the recruiting organisation.
Secondly supporting young graduates
through the ‘rite of passage’ from
university to the professional workplace.
And thirdly retaining graduates to
ensure the early stages of investment
in them materialises into contribution
to the success of the business. Put
simply, realising graduate talent is about
identifying potential and investing in
development so that each individual
can reach their full potential within the
business.
The challenge of graduate development
The first question is often how do we fit
graduates into the organisation so that
they can make a contribution to the
business? Yet to engage with, and retain
graduate talent, we might first need to
gain an understanding of what graduates’
needs are and what they expect from
employers. When looking to their
futures, it seems the next generation of
graduates may be looking for more than
just competitive financial remuneration.
Contribution from, and the retention of,
graduate recruits may well be significantly
enhanced by taking the time to think
carefully about their aspirations and
motivations and how might supporting
integration into the business take account
of this.
A large graduate study (2015) carried out
by Accenture led its head of strategy Payal
Vasudeva to conclude:
“This year’s graduates are highly
resourceful in making themselves
relevant to employers. They
expect good work opportunities
and employer provided training,
but many remain underemployed
and dissatisfied with their work
situation.”2
The Accenture study also concludes that
“59% of UK graduates would trade salary
for a positive social atmosphere.”2
A recent survey by the Hay Group
involving 300 heads of engagement
found that more than three-quarters
of respondents (84%) believed that
employers must engage their workforces
differently if they are to succeed in the
future3
.
Graduate recruits want employers to take
an active interest in their professional
development, providing creative
challenges from the outset and offering a
clear sense of career progression. Above
all, graduates are looking for first-class
training and support so that they can
develop the skills they need to progress in
their chosen career.
4. In addition, as learning via electronic
channels rather than face-to-face
communication becomes more common
in universities and training more generally,
more graduates are expecting the same
approach to be taken to the evelopment
they receive at work.
Although the situation is changing
significantly, many graduates have
limited, or in some cases no, prior work
experience (30% of the 2015 intake have
no work experience). So, while they bring
knowledge, energy and innovative thinking
to the workplace, their ability to put it into
practice in the work environment has yet
to be proven. Not surprisingly, therefore,
many organisations are looking closely
at the effectiveness of their graduate
development programmes.
Managing the progress of graduate talent
A successful graduate development
programme begins with a student and
ends with a business leader in order to
cultivate and retain the best graduates,
and of course those with talent are the
most sought-after in the job market,
investing careful thought and planning
into a graduate development programme
is essential. In a report by the Chartered
Institute of Personnel and Development6
(CIPD), employed graduates ranked
training and development (94%) and
career development (97%) as the top two
most important aspects of their job5
.
However, the journey is full of potential
pitfalls. If your programme is not aligned
to the needs of your graduate recruits, you
will be wasting your time and money – and
running the risk that your finest future
leaders will move elsewhere.
With this in mind, we have identified
three critical points associated with the
attraction, development and retention of
graduates:
Critical point 1
Attracting, selecting and screening
talented graduates is not something
that can be accomplished instinctively. It
requires a strategy. Without a carefully
considered approach, you will lose out
to other employers offering a more
appealing employment proposition. It is
critical to consider at this stage not only
the brightest and the most talented, but
the nature of your business, the kind
of organisational culture you have (and
perhaps the one may want to have in the
future) and what kind of person is most
likely to be successful. Recruiting the very
brightest graduate is not good business if
you are unable to offer them what they
aspire to or indeed the business cannot
find a way to realise their contribution.
Critical point 2
The psychological appeal of your
workplace, based on its organisational
culture, is a key inducement factor. Once
a graduate is involved in the reality of
your organisation and experiences the
culture first hand, they will compare this
experience with their prior expectations
and decide whether or not to commit
themselves further. They will learn and
adapt accordingly. The opportunity
to shape and manage expectation,
to find ways of supporting graduate
recruits through the ‘rite of passage’
from university to work, may be crucial.
Investment in coaching and mentoring
is critical at this early stage to support
individuals to see how they might realise
their potential and build affinity with the
organisation.
Seeing and understanding how to become
a valued professional contributing to the
success of the business is not instinctive.
Much of this is learned behaviour and a
conscious support process to achieve this
is likely to provide significant dividends for
both the individual and the organisation.

Critical Point 2 – The transition from the aspirational to the reality of the company culture - manging the psychological contract
Critical Point 3 – The transition into a pioneer – manging the transition to empowerment
Critical point 3
When graduates have found their feet
and are ready to be developed for
future leadership roles, they will gain
a clearer understanding of their value
to the organisation and feel inclined to
contribute, not just to the organisational
success, but to the overall culture. This
stage is critical as to whether the individual
may be retained and all the investment
made so far is realised for the benefit of
the business and the development of the
organisational culture. One of the most
common complaints about investing in
graduate development is their early ‘loss’.
The demonstration of commitment to
further development of career will be vital
to the rate of ‘loss’ of graduate recruits.
Accelerating graduate performance
By investing wisely businesses can take
proactive steps to deliver this expertise
and secure the benefits. Careful
examination of a business’s needs and
culture enables the identification of the
knowledge and skills that successful
new recruits should possess. A graduate
training programme needs to be versatile
and flexible, with coaching and mentoring
at its core, to prepare young graduates to
‘come of age’ professionally and become
fully-capable, self-supporting leaders
within an organisation. If carried out
effectively, a well designed development
programme will have an immediate
influence within the business and make a
significant impact to the bottom line?
