Business Agility
Organizations—and their talent—need to
be agile with the ability to swiftly change
direction. A good place to start is by linking
everything you do from a talent standpoint
back to the business and what it needs to
accomplish.

Strategic Workforce Planning
Determine what talent your organization
has, what it needs, and where talent gaps
exist—including pending retirements. Cover
all organizational levels and all key roles,
taking into account your ability to fill those
roles internally versus externally.
