Is Workforce Planning and Analytics replacing Talent Management as the “new hot thing"?

#HRISChat Session 6

Tuesday, July 16, 12:00 pm EDT/ 9:00 am PDT

With guest moderator Nov Omana, HRIP, CEO/Founder, Collective HR Solutions

Over the past year, a number of articles have criticized the traditional performance process and appraisal system.  In June 2012, the Vice President - Performance Management Development at Statoil posted an article: The end of performance management (as we know it).  Edward Lawler began a lively discussion with his July 2012 article in Forbes - Performance Appraisals Are Dead, Long Live Performance Management.  An article in a December 2012 issue of Forbes Magazine posed the question: Is there any organizational practice more broken than performance management? (Three Reasons Performance Management will Change in 2013)

At the same time, there has been a growing use and appreciation of workforce analytics and how they can be used to report on the ROI of performance improvement programs.  5 Ways High-Performance Organizations Use HR Analytics states that high performing organizations are ahead in the race to connect HR initiatives to business outcomes through data.  In February, Gartner declared "Analytics Moves To The Core".
 

Which leads us to ask the question - Is Workforce Planning and Analytics replacing Talent Management as the “new hot thing"? - on our July 16, 12:00 pm EDT #HRISChat.  Join our guest moderator, Nov Omana, CEO/Founder, Collective HR Solutions and IHRIM Past Chair, for this lively discussion.
