Talent Management

One of the biggest challenges for organizations is finding, hiring, and keeping the right employees for the organizational culture. Talent management is more than a business buzz phrase. It refers to the process of recruiting, hiring and retaining right-fit, top performers for your organization. We all know that turnover at all levels is costly and can destroy any chances for making a profit. Eliminating waste in the form of turnover means more money that can be directed to the bottom line. Here’s how we can help you!

  • Recruiting Right Fit
    Attract right-fit and best-fit talent to your organization by defining the key elements of your organizational culture (those things that define who you are as an organization) that you want to convey to prospective employees in your recruiting materials. Marketing collateral and methods must reflect the elements of your culture that represent your employee dynamics and utilize language and symbols that are strong representations of your brand identity. We will analyze your recruitment processes to incorporate your unique cultural elements into your marketing message and explore leveraging online technology to maximize resources throughout the recruiting process.
     
  • Hiring Right Fit
    We will help you develop interviewing tools and techniques for identifying right-fit employees that contribute in a positive way to the organization’s business goals. We will advise you on the creation of new role descriptions or review existing role descriptions that support the hiring process. Our templates ensure that you have a consistent, relevant, and measurable screening and interviewing method across all lines of business, teaching you to reduce manipulation by candidates who interview well but may not be the best fit candidates for the job.
     
  • Training Right Fit
    Even right-fit employees can fail if they are not provided with the skills, knowledge, resources and tools to be successful. We will work with your training team to design and deliver an orientation program that reinforces the elements of your organizational culture and clearly states performance expectations for employees. We will ensure that your on-the-job training provides you with tools, templates, and models for creating a measurable process that holds the new employee and the trainer accountable for results.
     
  • Retaining Right Fit
    Measurable savings can be realized by retaining those employees who are the right fit for your company. We will help you identify the processes and practices that keep employees from defecting to the competition. By collaborating with your key players, we will identify and implement ongoing developmental opportunities, reward and recognition aligned with company values and objectives. By creating an environment of trust and empowerment, and developing creative and valued offerings beyond traditional compensation benefits, right-fit talent will be retained, reducing turnover and associated costs.

Talent Management for the 21st Century:
Recruiting and Hiring the Best Talent for Your Organization

Cambridge Management Services, Inc. (CMSI) is a national multi-family property and asset management company. Executive leadership had identified an opportunity for the property managers to improve the hiring process to ensure that the organization’s business goals were met.

LSA PartnersSM was engaged to provide training and create tools to assist with right-fit hiring of management and front-line positions at the various properties. Specific behaviors demonstrating CMSI’s organizational culture were identified and incorporated along with skills, experience, and responsibilities into every job description and interview questions. Property managers were then trained on interviewing skills and utilizing the newly developed tools. By focusing on right-fit hiring, conflict from wrong-fit hires was reduced, customer service to the property tenants improved, and employee retention and productivity increased.
