SHRM 2013 Talent Management Conference
Stacking the Deck: Using Hidden Networks to Identify and Develop High Potentials and Succession Planning

 

Workplace Application: You will learn how to  dramatically improve succession and talent management initiatives.

In this fast-paced, interactive workshop, you will learn how to use the science of networks to validate succession plans, find hidden high performers and high potentials, and set up new hires for success. We will learn about the types of networks that typically form in organizations and the three critical roles that naturally emerge in every network.  We will learn how to use these three roles, and our new network knowledge, to support organization and employee development. You will leave with an increased ability to set succession and talent management initiatives up for success by drawing on your network knowledge.
