Creating a talent management strategy can be difficult and often tedious. With no clear plan, HR managers tend to flounder with decisions such as promotions, hiring, and development. Yet an effective strategy not only creates happy employees, who can actually see how their hard work affects the organization, but also satisfies the C-suite of executives who are impressed with how well it aligns with company goals.
