Annual CEO Benchmarking Report 2021
Remote work has created a shift in how teams communicate, work and succeed. Leaders are now more confused than ever in managing, motivating and cultivating relationships with the most important asset of their organization – the people.
Having a dream team and optimizing talent has become integral, now more than ever. However, dealing with people’s problems while managing everyday operations and strategy has left leaders stretched out thin and in need of help.
Leaders are now worried about issues that didn’t exist at such a massive scale when teams came together and worked on-premises. Dealing with productivity, team cohesion and communicating clearly has become a hassle in this remote-environment.
Talent optimization is the answer to all these struggles.
This is a tactic that allows leaders to carefully put the right personnel at the right place at the right time for optimal results. It finds its basis in people data points like behavioral fit and cognitive abilities to create dream teams that accomplish all tasks and more.
Such a behemoth task calls for outside intervention. A recent survey prompted that over 90% of CEOs admitted to needing help with talent strategies in the past six months. This is where trained consultants jump in to provide science-backed recommendations that are based on the leadership style and the people of an organization. They can help you define what kind of a team you are to what job should be allocated to various members for high efficiency.
A dream team not only creates success but also creates an environment where CEOs can allocate time to providing clear direction and communicating strategies across the organization rather than sorting out people’s issues.
As times and workstyles change, so do organizational requirements. With a need to manage and organize talent more efficiently, talent optimization becomes the go-to strategy for leaders. Do you think you’re your organization could benefit from this?
