Participants

This programme is designed for senior executives concerned about meeting present and future talent needs of their organisations. 


Introduction

How can managers properly identify talents for their companies? How to understand the unique characteristics of each type of talent? How to transform subjective “soft” judgment into objective “hard” criteria? How to attract, foster, retain and develop top talents? As “talent creates benefits”, a team of talented people constitutes a major source of competitiveness for a business. It has been a significant challenge for managers to manage talents in an effective and sustainable way. This programme focuses on the business benefits of taking talent seriously, guides participants to recognize key factors of successful talent management, provides them with a variety of tools, models, methods and strategies pertaining to effective talent management, and helps them diagnose, design, assess, implement, cultivate and evaluate talent management with practical “techniques”.


Programme Coverage

  • Talent challenges and strategies in China today
  • Identifying talent: Performance is not potential
  • Evaluating talent: A, B and C players
  • Designing and delivering talent development programmes
  • Connecting talent development to the business

As well as responding to the issues and challenges facing participants’ companies, we will draw on lessons learned from world-class companies such as GE, Proctor and Gamble, Microsoft, Whirlpool and Bank of America. We will also look at current best practices from companies in China.


A certificate of completion will be awarded
