Getting Our (TA) House in Order

John Vlastelica joined us to lead an interactive discussion - “Getting Our TA House in Order”.  John and I have been speaking this year about multiple topics and in our last discussion decided that the common theme is that they are all connected to finding the root issues in our TA organizations and the funnel.  We tackled the issues of Fixing the Middle of the TA Funnel, Beyond the Supply Side Challenge, Talent Team Design and Creating Talent Roadmaps beyond Executing the Annual Strategy.  NOTE: Please do not share his PDF outside of the TAB membership per request from John Vlastelica.

Thomas Stone, Senior Research Analyst at i4cp, spent time with us previewing our not yet released, ‘How to Avoid Collaboration Overload” research Part 4 of our collaboration series with Rob Cross. TA leaders touch all aspects of the business and HR, and in my opinion, are subject to collaboration overload more than other leaders. Tom’s deep insight into the subject and our research provided us with actionable ideas on how to stay focused and energized.
