    Talent And Succession Management

    Talent And Succession Management

    This week, Lucinda talks about talent and succession management strategies with a particular focus on smaller to mid-size organisations. Additionally, she busts through some of the more common succession planning jargon, to give you a far better idea of how to develop an effective talent strategy.

    Key Takeaways

    • Indeed, in a smaller sized business, there is an advantage, in that roles can be tailored to the skills at hand, thereby better serving the business needs.
    • Furthermore, attracting external talent can be made far easier if we have in place a robust talent management strategy, that rewards those who have taken the time to develop.
    • When implementing a career progression pathway, it’s important to think about the ways in which progress, and their pace.
    • People will be far more motivated to try to progress, if the pathway to doing so is fair and balanced across the board.

    'We have the resources now, to begin job profiling’

    ‘You can recruit talent into an organisation, and they don’t automatically perform’

    ‘When we’ve been at our best, it’s often because of the team, the role, and the culture’

    ‘You need to develop talent that is going to allow you take on those new aspirations’

    Neuroscience At Work Masterclass - with John Whitfield

    Neuroscience At Work Masterclass - with John Whitfield

    Lucinda is joined by Neuroleadership Development Professional, John Whitfield, for a masterclass in neuroscience, how we can best make sure our brains are working optimally, and also its applications in the workplace.

     Key Takeaways

    • During any given day, we only use the optimal power of our prefrontal cortex for around two to three hours, which is why it's so crucial that we prioritise our day effectively.
    • Prioritise important tasks for the beginning of the day as this is when we are at our most effective. Therefore, our brain will have the energy to be brilliant!
    • Certainly, look at your daily routine and examine the effects of your sleep patterns upon it. Remember that your day actually begins the night before, when your brain prepares you for the day ahead.
    • We should endeavour to eat dinner at least four hours before we head to bed. This will give our bodies the best chance of falling asleep instead of working to digest the food we've eaten, leading to a better night's sleep.

    Effective Remote Appraisals

    Effective Remote Appraisals

    In this week's episode, Lucinda talks you through the ways in which you can better prepare for remote appraisals. Also, Lucinda gives practical guidance on how to evaluate fairly in what has been the most abnormal of years.

     KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Indeed, remote working has thrown up many challenges, including wellbeing, home schooling, or remote working itself. In many cases, we have spent more time at home than we have in the office.
    • Certainly, we must consider how different the last year has been in terms other than geography. Many factors are actually the same, but simply feel different.
    • Without clear objectives, or diluted milestones due to geography, it can be increasingly difficult to assess or appraise performance. Therefore, we must look to other markers.
    • Furthermore, behavioural evidence is increasingly important for organisations, and yet without face to face contact, many find it difficult to assess this. But even when working remotely, we still have a sense of interaction.

    BEST MOMENTS

    'If we don't have to find objectives or milestones, this makes it a little bit more complicated...'

    'Objectives and feedback are what drives performance'

    'Were our objectives smart in the first place?'

    'It's not what we do but how we do it that makes a huge difference'
