Workforce Strategy

Productivity Improvements

Background and Client Objectives
The client is a major employer with in excess of 20,000 employees. In order to make productivity improvements throughout the business they had developed a range of talent related interventions to improve internal leadership capability and support their objective.

They also wanted a third party opinion; an outside organisation to undertake a review of their current state and advise them on what needed to change to position them for the future.

What We Did
They then approached Talent2 to undertake an HR review of their business and assess their workforce strategy. Although Talent2 had an existing relationship with the client, they were chosen for this project based on proven experience and value for money.

As part of this project, Talent2 proposed an evidence based review followed by a research component and advisory report.

Talent2's approach was to focus on the organisation's objectives and review all inputs, processes, outputs and outcomes, to quickly discover the weaknesses in HR frameworks. From this, Talent2 then developed strategies to correct and support any areas of weakness, and made recommendations to re-focus activity to improve the delivery of the organisation's objectives.

The final advisory report highlighted Talent2's observations and recommended a range of strategies and actions that, when combined, deliver the required outcome.

The whole project was successfully delivered over four months.  

The Results
The client now has a clear understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of their current Human Resource activities and a well documented blueprint to move them from where they are at present into the future - a future aligned to achieving their productivity gains.
