Never change your talent management in difficult times! Wrong! Today's complex environment demands more than traditional approaches. This is why it is especially important to rethink your own HR strategies in difficult times. Here are some timeless insights for making a significant impact, even with limited resources: 1.) Strategic Hiring Bringing on experienced HR talent early in your company's life can be a game-changer. Rather than hiring multiple entry-level positions as needs arise, consider the value a seasoned professional can add from the start. 2.) Talent Lifecycle View talent management as a continuous cycle. From hiring to development to retention, each stage should be tailored to both the individual and the company’s context. 3.) Value Creation Employees today seek meaningful work where they feel valued. Even without a big budget, creating a culture that appreciates and develops talent is crucial. 🚀 Pro Tip For startups and small businesses, investing in experienced HR leadership early can save costs and streamline processes far more effectively than piecemeal hiring. In my latest episode of 'The People Factor,' I chat with Lynn In Ok Schaefer, who shares how strategic HR initiatives can drive business success, regardless of budget size. Tune in for practical tips on developing a robust talent strategy! #HRStrategy #TalentManagement #StartUpGrowth #HRLeadership

Succession planning is a crucial aspect of any organization's long-term success. It allows for the smooth transition of critical roles and continuity of operations. One way to achieve this is by grooming employees who demonstrate potential for growth and advancement. Reskilling or upskilling current employees requires a smaller investment than bringing in new talent and they have already adapted to the culture and business philosophies of the organization. Another way to ensure a smooth transition from attrition is through #employeerelocation, which can be leveraged to fill key positions in different locations. By investing in the growth and development of current employees, organizations can secure a strong future for themselves.

We've all seen it before - two companies merge with high hopes, only to see employee disengagement and a high level of attrition. Research shows that around 34% of acquired employees leave within the first year post-acquisition. This significant loss of talent can diminish the success of the M&A deal. There are three key actions executives can take to deal with employee attrition and increase the likelihood of a successful M&A transaction: knowing your people, bringing your people along on the journey and getting the culture right. It's important to address the most important reasons employees leave, which include poor communication during the transaction, not seeing their place in the new organization, and challenges adapting to the new company culture. By focusing more on their people, companies can ensure a smoother transition for employees and a more successful integration overall. #mergersandacquisitions #integration #businessleadership #people #peopleandculture #humanresources #shareholdervalue

No matter how much the world changes, HR still comes down to getting and keeping the right people.  - How do you screen people? - How do you onboard people? - How do you give them growth? - How do you treat them well? - How do you get the wrong ones off the bus? None of these questions are revolutionary. But for stretched mid-market firms, best practices often feel out of reach. They race in a thousand directions while struggling to fund and focus on talent. This is exactly why we created McCloneHR 10 years ago. Our clients were endlessly struggling with this and had no where to turn. We are now able to build and maintain Fortune 500-grade HR, with small business feel. That right talent infrastructure supports winning the war for talent even during rapid growth or constrained budgets. Top players in any era understand that truth and invest accordingly. For mid-market leaders, the right partnership model gives you access to reliable and tested systems that you don’t have to create yourself. And remember: The teams you build and retain determine what you can achieve. 

Founders and enterprise leaders - #mediocrity has a high cost. It is crucial to avoid persistent cynicism, resistance, and casualness. These factors often compound and can ultimately derail future plans. It is crucial to take preventative action as it can puncture your #credibility, and make your rhetoric sound empty. Thus, it is imperative to maintain an unwavering dedication to #excellence across all facets. Prioritize employee engagement and attentively listening to their feedback. #strategy #hyperscale #scaleups #bizgrowth #foundersadvice #bizmodel #innovation #fintech #insurtech #digitaltransformation #productmanagement #web3  #TMinsights
