Career and Talent Management

In a high-performing organization, each employee's strengths and talents are well-utilized, which in turn produces a high level of commitment, engagement, satisfaction, and performance. In today's rapidly-changing environment, the ability to maintain a high level of employee-role fit is an ongoing challenge. Waldron & Company professionals bring extensive experience and combine our best approaches to helping your organization meet this challenge: assessment, targeted feedback, training, and coaching

Career Management. We begin by helping the individual increase his or her understanding of strengths, traits, styles, and values. This lays the groundwork for effective career management. We have enhanced career management skills with thousands of individuals by providing a framework and strategies for adding value to the work place.

Talent Management. Your organization has human talent needs, direction, structure, and resources that, if optimized, will help you to succeed. We identify key competencies, skills, and behaviors to guide employee selection. On this base, we can help you select and implement an optimal combination of talent management strategies, which may include orientation, on-boarding, performance feedback and management systems, coaching, leadership development, and team building.

Individual Job Performance and Alignment. In an era of lean organizations and a growing range of demands, each employee's performance is more important than ever. For each individual to achieve optimal performance, he or she requires an accurate assessment of strengths and developmental needs, and these in turn must matched the requirements of his or her role and responsibilities. To help you make this match, we apply a variety of assessment methodologies, including facilitated, multi-rater, or 360-degree survey feedback to lay the groundwork for development plans and coaching strategies.

Retention and Turnover. High employee turnover costs time and money. Recruiting, hiring, on-boarding, and training replacement staff is expensive. Loss of accumulated experience and knowledge lowers productivity and morale, and can adversely impact customer service and satisfaction. Waldron & Company professionals assess the work culture and environment, including engagement and satisfaction, and help you use that information to resolve system problems and retain your best employees.

Succession Planning. A strategic component for every organization is planning for succession into key leadership positions. This can be done by preparing your high-potential employees to move into key positions, or through timely identification, hiring, and development of new employees with high leadership potential, or a combination of both strategies.

In our current environment, marked by a critical shortage of qualified senior and mid-level leaders, Waldron & Company can help you prepare for continued leadership success. We partner with you and your human resources professionals to review your leadership and management structure, as well as employees with high potential to move into key positions. We can help you develop a strategy with the right balance of coaching, training and development, and recruitment to meet your needs and ensure a seamless leadership transition.
