What companies think talent management looks like in hybrid work: ✔ Everyone has equal access to opportunities. ✔ Performance is measured fairly. ✔ Promotions are based on impact. What actually happens: ❌ Employees who aren’t in the office get overlooked. ❌ Leaders still rely on gut instinct over data. ❌ Career growth favours visibility over capability. This is a problem. If your talent strategy still depends on who you see, not what they do, you’re not managing talent. You’re just managing presence. High-performing companies level the playing field with: > AI-driven workforce insights to identify skills, strengths, and potential, no matter where employees work. > Smart internal mobility tools to match talent to opportunities, not just office politics. > Real-time data to make sure critical roles are filled with the right people, not just the most visible. If you can’t see your people, you don’t need more meetings. You need better data. 🫳 ⇣ 🎤 #TalentMapper #RightFitEveryTime #HR #TalentManagement #HybridWork #FutureOfWork #PeopleStrategy

The way organisations manage talent is broken. Job titles and rigid career ladders no longer cut it in a world where skills evolve faster than hiring strategies. 4 in 5 organisations say that taking a skills-based approach is critical to navigating future disruptions but only 14% are using employees' skills to their full potential (Deloitte). Join Martin Mason, CEO of TalentMapper, and Lori Niles-Hofmann, board member, advisor, and seasoned executive, as they share why skills-based organisations are the future of work - and how you can build one. If you’re leading a business, shaping HR strategy, or looking to build a more agile and high-performing workforce, this is the discussion you need to hear.

HR’s biggest challenge right now? Too many systems and not enough insights. We surveyed over 1,400 HR professionals and found their biggest challenge was fragmented HR systems. HR teams are drowning in disconnected platforms. One system for talent.  Another for personnel data.  A separate one for L&D. And none of them talk to each other 🙅♂️ This disjointed system leads to a lack of actionable workforce insights. > No clear picture of internal talent mobility. > Blind spots in succession planning. > Reactive, not proactive, workforce decisions. HR needs consolidated platforms that bring talent and performance data together in one place. Giving HR teams the clarity they need to make smarter, more strategic people decisions. Because when you combine great data analytics with real workforce insights, HR moves from firefighting to future-proofing. Want to see how?

A safe workplace isn’t just a policy, it’s a leadership responsibility. Too many organisations think having an HR policy on workplace conduct is enough. It’s not. Recent headlines about Foxtons highlight a brutal truth: toxic cultures don’t just appear, they are allowed to grow. Whether through inaction, weak policies, or a failure to enforce standards, leaders set the tone. So how should we prevent toxic workplaces? Stop treating HR policies as a box-ticking exercise and start embedding them into company culture. Here’s where leaders need to step up: 🔥 Clear, enforceable policies – It’s not enough to have a policy; it needs to be actionable, consistently applied, and enforced without exception. 🗣 Psychological safety – If people don’t feel safe speaking up, issues will fester. Employees need clear, confidential reporting channels and trust that action will follow. 🚀 Leaders set the example – Employees look to leadership for cues. If senior management tolerates poor behaviour, it will become the norm. Accountability must start at the top. 📈 Training isn’t a one-off – A single harassment training won’t change culture. Ongoing learning, feedback, and active efforts to build respect into daily interactions are essential. If your workplace relies on “hope” to prevent toxic behaviour, you’ve already lost. #TalentMapper #RightFitEverytime #HRLeadership #WorkplaceCulture #PsychologicalSafety #TalentManagement #RespectAtWork

HR careers go one of two ways: 📌 The generalist path: jack-of-all-trades, handling everything from hiring to policies to employee relations. 📌 The specialist path: deep expertise in areas like talent acquisition, L&D, or compensation. Neither one is a better option - one simply might be better for you. Generalists thrive in smaller companies where agility is key. They offer broad strategic insight and can be a go-to advisor for leadership. Specialists, on the other hand, shine in larger organisations that need deep subject matter expertise. The challenge most HR professionals face is they accidentally fall into one camp without ever consciously deciding what they want 🤷🏻♂️ #TalentMapper #RightFitEverytime #HRCareers #HRGeneralist #HRSpecialist #HRLeadership #TalentManagement
