Every HR leader must master these 6 steps to build a coherent and effective strategy within their organization. <\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-1-strategic-talent-planning\"><strong><strong><strong>Step 1 : Strategic talent planning<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Before recruiting or training, organizations must identify the key talent they will need in the future. Workforce planning involves anticipating skill needs over a 2\u20133 year horizon, identifying capability gaps to address, and preparing tailored <a href=\"https:\/\/balencio.com\/en\/employer-branding\/onboarding\/\">onboarding <\/a>programs for each strategically hired profile. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83c\udfaf<strong> Practical action <\/strong>: Each year, organize a strategic \u201ctalent review\u201d with your executive committee to map critical skills over a 3-year horizon and identify key roles that need to be secured as a priority.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-2-talent-attraction-and-recruitment\"><strong><strong><strong>Step 2 : Talent attraction and recruitment<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Attracting top talent requires an authentic and distinctive <a href=\"https:\/\/balencio.com\/en\/employer-branding\/\">employer brand<\/a>. Today\u2019s candidates are demanding consumers: they assess your culture, values, and career development opportunities before considering compensation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Improve your presence on employer platforms (LinkedIn, Glassdoor, Welcome to the Jungle)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Involve your employees as ambassadors (Employee Advocacy)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Offer a smooth, respectful, and personalized candidate experience<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Diversify your sourcing channels : co-optation, nurseries, school partnerships<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-3-identification-and-evaluation-of-high-potentials-hipo\"><strong><strong><strong>Step 3 : Identification and evaluation of high potentials (HiPo)<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Identifying high-potential employees with rigor and objectivity is one of the most challenging aspects of talent management. It is based on two complementary dimensions, where the final score should reflect both past performance and future potential : <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Current performance<\/strong><\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\"><strong>Development potential<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">What the employee accomplishes today (results, objectives achieved).<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-center\" data-align=\"center\">His ability to move towards roles with greater responsibility (agility, leadership, ambition).<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>\ud83d\udee0\ufe0f<strong>Recommended tool: the 9-box matrix<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The performance\/potential grid (9-box grid) is the reference tool for objectifying decisions during talent reviews.

It should be complemented with 360\u00b0 feedback data to reduce bias.  <\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"step-4-talent-development-and-career-management\"><strong><strong><strong>Step 4 : Talent development and career management<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Identifying a key employee without supporting their skill development is counterproductive. High-potential profiles leave for organizations that invest in them. Well-structured training and <a href=\"https:\/\/balencio.com\/en\/employer-branding\/onboarding\/\">onboarding <\/a>programs, combined with personalized support, are the foundation of any effective retention strategy.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Individual development plans (PDIs) co-built between the employee, their manager, and HR<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mentoring and coaching programs by internal or external leaders<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mobilit\u00e9 interne et missions transversales pour \u00e9largir les exp\u00e9riences<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Formations certifiantes, MBA, programmes de leadership pour les HiPo<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Management of the succession : identify and prepare the key positions&#8217; successors<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-left\" id=\"step-5-engagement-and-retention\"><strong><strong><strong><strong>Step 5 : Engagement and Retention<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left\">Developing a key employee without retaining them is effectively training them for your competitor. Successful retention relies on three fundamental HR levers: <\/p>\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"1-recognition-and-remuneration\"><strong><strong><strong>1.

It must be jointly driven by HR and top leadership, in direct alignment with the company\u2019s strategic goals. Ask yourself: what skills do we need to execute our 3-year plan?  <\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"good-practice-n%25c2%25b02-make-managers-active-participants-in-talent-management\"><strong><strong><strong>Good practice n\u00b02 : Make managers active participants in talent management<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Frontline managers are the first to identify and develop key employees. Train them to recognize potential, conduct high-quality development conversations, structure onboarding for new hires, and create an environment where talent can thrive. An untrained manager is the primary risk factor for losing high-potential employees.  <\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"good-practice-n%25c2%25b03-combating-bias-in-talent-identification\"><strong><strong><strong>Good practice n\u00b03 : Combating bias in talent identification<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Talent review processes are vulnerable to cognitive biases (affinity bias, halo effect, conformity bias). Strengthen your evaluations with objective criteria grids, involve multiple evaluators, and diversify profiles within talent committees. <\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"good-practice-n%25c2%25b04-digitize-without-dehumanizing\"><strong><strong><strong>Good practice n\u00b04 : Digitize without dehumanizing<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/balencio.com\/en\/hris-definition-and-benefits-for-your-company\/\">HRIS <\/a>and talent management tools (such as SAP SuccessFactors, Workday, and Talentsoft) provide valuable decision support: HR analytics, skills mapping, and tracking of development programs. However, technology must remain a support to human relationships, never a substitute. <\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"good-practice-n%25c2%25b05-customize-talent-paths\"><strong><strong><strong>Good practice n\u00b05 : Customize Talent Paths<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>A standardized talent program is a suboptimal talent program. Each employee has different aspirations, learning pace, and leadership style. Co-design tailored development paths with each identified talent, taking into account their wishes and personal constraints.  <\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"good-practice-n%25c2%25b06-cultivate-internal-talent-pipelines-before-hiring\"><strong>Good practice n\u00b06 : Cultivate internal talent pipelines before hiring<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Internal mobility is too often underutilized. Before any external recruitment, systematically explore internal opportunities. Organizations that promote internal mobility see engagement levels up to twice as high and significantly lower recruitment costs.  <\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"good-practice-n%25c2%25b07-communicate-with-transparency-about-talent-paths\"><strong>Good practice N\u00b07 : Communicate with transparency about talent paths<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>A lack of transparency in selection criteria creates frustration and a sense of unfairness. Managers must clearly communicate their processes: who can be identified, based on which criteria, and with what concrete career outcomes. Transparency is one of the most effective ways to sustainably retain key employees.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"checklist-the-10-priority-actions-to-be-implemented-now\"><strong>Checklist : the 10 priority actions to be implemented now<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Ready to take action without wasting time?
