Features of Talent Management Integration

Features of Talent Management Integration- Integrated talent management (ITM) refers to the management of traditional HR sub-functions (recruitment and selection, workforce planning, performance management, learning and development, reward and recognition, and succession planning) in an integrated fashion to strategically leverage talent. As a part of UC’s systemwide HR strategic plan, talent management integrates the HR functions of talent planning, acquisition, onboarding, performance, learning, and succession into an interconnected whole. It provides the structure and tools necessary to hire, deploy, develop, and retain the best people in their respective fields.

An integrated talent management function has several distinguishing features, which are

• Talent Strategy and Workforce Plan Are Tied to Corporate Strategy: An integrated function is meant to help the business meet the human capital needs of the corporate strategy. As a result, an explicit talent strategy and workforce plan are key to ensuring that talent management activities are aligned with the business. Workforce planning also allows an integrated function to rapidly adjust to changing business needs.
• Talent Management Processes Are Aligned to the Talent Strategy: The talent strategy and workforce plan should drive all talent management activities. In an integrated function, the talent strategy and workforce plan are the puppet-master, and the talent management processes are the marionettes.
