It doesn’t matter whether you are a tiger or a deer: when the

“Crisis may be an overused word, but it’s
a fair description of the state of
leadership in today’s corporations.
CEOs are failing sooner and falling
harder, leaving their companies in
turmoil. At all levels, companies are
short on the quantity and quality of
leaders they need.”

The Talent Strategy
Describes what type of people the organization will invest
in and how it will be done
Besides the specific elements of their creed, the talent
strategy of all high performing organizations should
have these directives:
1) Identify key positions in the organization (not more than
20-30 %)
2) Assess your employees and identify the high performers
(classify according to their current and future potential)
3) Retain key position backups
4) Make appropriate investments (select, train, develop,
reward)

Assessing the Employees
Superkeepers- greatly exceed expectations
(3-5%)
Keepers – exceed expectations (20 %)
Solid citizens- meet expectations (75 %)
Misfits- below expectations (2-3 %)

Who are High Potentials?
High Potentials consistently and significantly
outperform their peer groups in a variety of settings.
While achieving these superior levels of performance,
they exhibit behaviors that reflect their companies’
culture and values in an exemplary manner.
Show a strong capacity to grow and succeed
throughout their careers within an organization – more
quickly and effectively than their peer groups do.

COMPETENCY MODELLING
- 37. 37
© 2013 IPMA Asia Pacific
www.ipma.com.sg
What is Competency?
Competencies are the core elements of talent
management practices
They are the demonstrable and measurable
knowledge, skills, behaviors, personal
characteristics that are associated with or
predictive of excellent job performance.
Examples
Adaptability, teamwork, decision making, customer
orientation, leadership, innovation etc.
- 38. 38
© 2013 IPMA Asia Pacific
www.ipma.com.sg
Examples of Competencies and Definitions
Action Orientation
Targets and achieve results,overcomes obstacles, accepts responsibility,
creates a results-oriented environment.....
Interpersonal Skill
Effectively and productively engages with others and establishes trust,
credibility, and confidence with them
Creativity/Innovation
Generates novel ideas and develops or improves existing and new systems
that challenge the status quo, takes risks, and encourage innovation
Teamwork
Knows when and how to attract, develop, reward, be part of, and utilize
teams to optimize results. Acts to build trust, inspire enthusiasm,
encourage others, and help resolve conflicts and develop consensus in
supporting higperformance teams
L. A. Berger, D. R. Berger. Talent Management Handbook: The Talent Management Handbook: Creating a Sustainable
Competitive Advantage by Selecting, Developing, and Promoting the Best People, 2nd Edition McGraw-Hill, 2011
- 39. 39
© 2013 IPMA Asia Pacific
www.ipma.com.sg
Why Competencies?
The challenge is to identify which competencies the
organization expects to see in their people
The starting point of the model is the creed (values,
principles, expectations) and the business strategies
Through a competency model the organization sends a consistent
message to the workforce about “what it takes” to be successful in the
job
Helps employees understand what helps drive successful performance
The Competency Model approach focuses on the “How” of the job.
Competency model is behavioral rather than functional, focuses on the
people rather than jobs
Competency models are outcome driven rather than activities (Job
descriptions focus on activities, competencies focus on outcomes)
Integrates HR strategy with business strategy –both focus on outcomes
- 40. 40
© 2013 IPMA Asia Pacific
www.ipma.com.sg
Why Competencies?
The competency model serves as the foundation
upon which all workforce processes are built.
Competencies promote alignment of talent
management systems by creating a common
language that enables these systems to talk with
each other! That is, results of one TM system is
used as the input data for the following TM
system.
- 41. 41
© 2013 IPMA Asia Pacific
www.ipma.com.sg
The Competency Model
The Competency Model identifies usually three
groups of competencies:
Core competencies for the entire organization to shape the
organizational capabilities and culture required to achieve
the strategic goals (5 or 6)
Leadership competencies for the management teams of
various levels for selection, career planning and
development
Functional (technical) competencies (specific for each job
family)
- 42. 42
© 2013 IPMA Asia Pacific
www.ipma.com.sg
Developing a Competency Model
Use commonly available “ready to use” models
with small adjustments for your organization
Develop own competency model with help of
external consultants where necessary
Behavioral Benchmarking compare superior
performers with other best people in the
organization and in other benchmark companies
- 43. 43
© 2013 IPMA Asia Pacific
www.ipma.com.sg
Developing Organization’s Own
Competency Model
Overview of current tasks and responsibilities
Come to agreement about what successful “outcome
driven” performance looks like
Review of competency library and selection of “must
haves” for the position
Rank top competencies as demonstrated by exemplary
(superior) performers
Identify of those competencies that align with the vision,
mission and strategic plan of the organization
Verify the competencies with a larger sample of the
organization
- 44. 44
© 2013 IPMA Asia Pacific
www.ipma.com.sg
Competencies & Talent Management
TALENT=COMPETENCE+COMMITMENT+CONTRIBUTION
Being competent is not only enough to be a talent
The competent person should be committed to the causes
and goals of the organization
And should be able and willing to contribute to the success
of the organization
So, developing your talent is not enough, the organizations
need to take all the measures to motivate, reward their
talent pool to gain their commitment and contribution.
Retention is also essential to gaurantee future alignment of
the talent with the right key positions

Summary : Top Lessons Learnt
For leading global organisations, both HR and business leaders
recognize that talent is a critical driver of business performance. It
comes as no surprise then that talent management practices are
often cited as a key strategic priority.
No strategy can be effective without the support of senior
leadership and talent management is certainly no exception.
Achieving sustainable organizational performance through the
development of a capable workforce lies at the very heart of talent
management.
The ability to develop next generation of leaders who can
effectively face tomorrow’s global business challenges is critical to
an organization’s success. But it won’t be easy. You need to invest
in it!
