overview
Dr. Dave Ulrich,
Professor of Business Ross School of Business, University of Michigan
Dear Colleagues,
Welcome to the Talent for Tomorrow | 2012 Summit.
As companies across the globe and across industries struggle to move beyond the recent global recession, many business leaders are adjusting their talent strategies to meet the shifting demands characterized as the "new normal." While the inclination may be strong to revert to strategies that served them well prior to the economic crisis, many executives seem to recognize that the forces shaping future talent needs, such as globalization, an aging workforce, a demand for diversity and for finding meaning at work continued to accelerate during the downturn and now require new talent strategies to position their companies for success.
Fortunately in most organizations Talent Management is now not merely a privilege of selected individuals waiting to be the next in line for career advancement, rather it has become a more holistic approach looking at every single soul in the company, tapping on everyone's strength and creating opportunities to ensure people find true meaning and value and work while focusing on contribution.
As businesses continue to change by an enormous speed, not surprisingly Talent has also become the No. 1 concern for business leaders. Looking after people no longer can be delegated or put off to HR, getting the best out of people is a joint responsibility of business, HR and the individual himself. Although while HR acts as an architect business needs to get the job done; it is therefore every business executives responsibility to ensure the right people are attracted, engaged, developed and retained.
Talent Management and Employee Engagement on the other hand cannot be treated in isolation, people professional must start by examining the culture of the organization first, ensuring the delivery of employer branding promises and creating workplaces that not only echoes the corporate mantra on the company's glossy marketing materials but truly delivers high performance and highly engaging workplaces.
Therefore it is my privilege to invite you to join the 2nd Annual Talent for Tomorrow Summit, which has been fully revamped to offer answers to the most pressing challenges faced by talent professionals. The summit aims at exploring talent strategies, concerns of global companies, and unfolding employee trends as companies confront a fresh set of challenges that we expect will influence the coming few years and beyond.
We've been working very hard to put together the best summit program on the subject, covering critical issues on Talent Management, Employee Engagement and Learning. The agenda has been well researched and carefully designed to deliver a balanced approach of keynotes, peer-learning workgroups, and interactive masterclasses.
I hope to meet you at the summit, should you have any questions or feedback please don't hesitate to contact me. If you have not done so, please join the HCM Excellence Network on LinkedIn, a lively community of over 3,200 senior people professionals. http://www.linkedin.com/groups?about=&gid=1850502

Masterclass A: Talent on Demand
Listen to a Podcast with Peter Cappelli26th April, 08:30-16:30
The Business Issue:
Getting the right people with the right skills into the right jobs—a common definition of talent management—is the basic people management challenge in any organization. While talent management often focuses on managerial and executive positions, the issues involved apply to all jobs that are hard to fill. Failures in talent management may be more recognizable than the concept itself. Those failures include mismatches between supply and demand: on the one hand, having too many employees, leading to layoffs and restructurings, and on the other hand, having too little talent or not being able to find the skills that are needed.
These mismatches are among the biggest challenges that employers face. Over the past generation, many employers have lurched from surpluses of talent to shortfalls and back again. Something is wrong with this picture.
The Solution: Managing Talent on Demand
Attend Wharton Professor Peter Cappelli's full day masterclass and familiarize with international best practices on how to balance and manage Talent on Demand.
Suggested Readings
Talent on Demand: Managing Talent in the Age of Uncertainty by Peter Cappelli (2008). # 4478 (ISBN 978-1-42210-447-7) Hardcover 304 pages
The New Deal at Work: Managing the Market-Driven Workforce by Peter Cappelli (1999) ISBN 978-0-87584-668-2 Hardcover 307 pages
Lessons of Experience: How Successful Executives Develop on the Job by Morgan McCall, Michael Lombardo, Ann Morrison (1988). ISBN 978-0-66918-095-4 Hardcover 210 pages
Recognized as one of the world's most important authorities on human capital, Dr. Peter Cappelli is the George W. Taylor Professor of Management at the Wharton School and Director of Wharton's Center for Human Resources. His work focuses on human resource practices, talent and performance management, and public policy related to employment. He advises organizations on the development of managerial and executive talent by helping his clients better understand how careers and career paths have changed, how these changes require companies to think about managing talent from a more strategic perspective, and how individuals should now think about managing their own careers.
Peter's more recent research examines changes in employment relations in the U.S. and their implications. Publications on the subject matter include, The New Deal at Work: Managing the Market-Driven Workforce, which examines the decline in lifetime employment relationships, Talent Management: Managing Talent in an Uncertain Age, which outlines the strategies that employers should consider in developing and managing talent (named a "best business book" for 2008 by Booz-Allen).
Peter was named one of the 25 most influential people in the field of human capital by Vault.com and one of the top 100 people in the field of recruiting by Recruiter.com. Additionally, he was elected to the National Academy of Human Resources, and—in 2004—named editor of the Academy of Management Perspectives. He currently serves on commissions for The Business Roundtable, the World Economic Forum, and the U.S. Department of Labor.

A key purpose here is to drive employee engagement and commitment, enhancing people alignment and build a high-performing organization. These two strategic projects both included 3rd and 2nd loop learning, successfully combining bottom-up and top-down interaction. The company has found some astonishing paradoxes when analyzing their worst and best practices. In Volvo's worst locations, employee satisfaction with immediate supervisor/manager is HIGH in the team dimension, but the confidence and trust in senior and middle management is LOW in the company dimension. In their best locations, employee engagement is HIGH in all three dimensions - team, company and community dimensions - and they're clearly moving towards a high performing organization. This on-stage real life interview will focus on understanding the drivers of employee engagement – and especially the importance of involving managers and including employees in a dialogue about the strategy, vision and culture – that is where Volvo is way ahead of other global companies. |
