Brandon Hall Group, the leading independent HCM research and analyst firm, is launching a survey to understand the human capital management priorities of organizations in the coming year and how the continued disruption of COVID-19 and evolution of the hybrid workplace will impact goals and objectives.
The business benefits of having women of all ethnicities and races in positions of influence and leadership are well-documented. Another Brandon Hall Group Study, What’s Changing for Women in the Workplace, examined how high-performing organizations adjust their development strategies for women across demographic groups and geographies. The study shows how the disruption of the pandemic impacted women and organizations’ plans as they transition to the evolving “new normal.”
Maintaining a strategic TA process is much more than simply sustaining a healthy pipeline of talent to your organization — although that might be the most important aspect of it. The key word here is “strategic,” as keeping a flow of people into the organization is valuable but at its core, it is a tactical process. To be strategic with TA, it is important to consider it holistically: the sourcing, the state of the recruitment team, the technology, the process, the EVP.
Employers say their biggest human capital management challenges over the next six months will be retaining talent, employee engagement and acquiring new talent, though 15 distinct challenges are rated at least 3 on a 5-point scale. Organizations are pulled in many directions and most management functions present at least a moderate challenge, creating stress across organizations.
Organizations that fail to develop more senior women and other diverse leaders lack progress in ensuring leadership that reflects its employee and customer base, which will become increasingly diverse in the years ahead.
Many studies indicate that COVID-19 dealt a major setback to women in the workplace. Even before COVID, Brandon Hall Group research showed that women were not making substantial progress toward gaining a proportional representation in management. Only 51% of organizations believe they effectively develop women in the workplace, according to What’s Changing for Women in the Workplace? Most organizations said that more support from top management and having specific owners of development initiatives for women would help, the research showed.
Regardless of the type of HCM discipline you work in, there’s a good chance your organization is making some effort toward improving its DE&I pipeline and talent pool. Brandon Hall Group research across all of our practice areas has shown a consistent commitment to improving DE&I regardless of organization size or industry type.
Having an effective talent acquisition strategy is required for long-term success. However, what defines “effective” can change from industry to industry, company to company. So, too, do the ways that organizations define success, with a variety of ways to assess where your organization stands in terms of TA strategy and how to tell if it is improving with any changes.
