Our Approach to Talent Management
Our approach to Talent Management is built around the Japanese concept is Ikigai. This places the emphasis on the individual and how to achieve a full life at work and a satisfying career. Our approach has adapted the core ikigai principles into practical steps and actions that leaders, managers and organisations can take in order to help manage all their talent in the best possible way.
Our approach focuses on solving talent problems and helping clients find solutions that work. The model requires leaders, managers and key stakeholders to be able to hold 6 essential talent conversations on the following topics:
Passionate about work and alignment to work where an individual will thrive and be motivated to do their best
Excelling at work via excellent skills, knowledge and behaviours, focusing on good to great principles
Building a fantastic reputation (both internally and externally) at work for their work and contributions
Financial and reward discussions that are meaningful and work for everyone
Cultural fit around values and a feeling of belonging
Performance Delivery and Achievement of Results that please the organisations leaders, customers and suppliers.

A lighter touch approach when needed
Having listened to our clients, we know that occasionally a client just wants something quick and easy to use. For these clients, we adopt a simpler approach and just focus on 3 elements that help solve talent problems:
Their skills, knowledge and behaviour to do the work well
Their motivation to deliver required results and outcomes
Their attitude towards work, colleagues, customers and suppliers
So we can scale back our core solutions to this simpler approach when needed.
