As technology and capital are commoditized, and global competition rapidly scales, high performing talent is an increasingly critical advantage. It follows that organizations who invest to understand and integrate strategic talent practices are more likely to achieve market leadership.
Every business problem consists of two challenges. First, the solution to the strategic, technical or functional issue. Second, the right people, in the right seats, aligned to the right activities, to quickly and effectively achieve the result.
Increasingly, executive leaders are capable of overcoming the business challenge, but struggling with the people side of the equation. As global competition increases, talent is becoming the key competitive lever, and organizations that understand how to strategically attract, engage, develop and retain the best workers, are at a significant competitive advantage. This requires a fundamental shift from industrial era HR and management practices, to global economy talent leadership
The Human Capital Institute (HCI) has been at the forefront of the transformation from traditional HR to strategic human capital management, since 2004. We have led the way to a common definition of integrated talent management, the articulation of it's component parts, and the development of best and next practices in the field. Our members are the most progressive executives, from the most successful companies in the world, and they are leading their organizations to higher performance, increased productivity and greater competitive success, through the science of talent management.
Today's leaders need 24/7 access to rapidly evolving next practices and new ideas. HCI excels at delivering the creative thought leadership, new ideas and fresh perspectives that develop talent mindsets, create integrated talent practices, change leadership behaviors, and drive innovation ahead of the market.
HR and line executives are struggling to innovate, integrate and improve talent practices. Enterprise Membership gives them up-to-the-minute information, education, research and collaboration that solves problems and moves the needle - from workforce planning through recruitment, hiring, on-boarding, alignment, engagement, development, succession and retention.
Effective talent management requires a consistent framework, and a common vocabulary across the enterprise. Administrative HR professionals must be upskilled to understand business strategy, and business leaders must embrace competencies formerly aligned to HR. Enterprise Membership provides the models and resources that leaders need to move talent initiatives forward, together.
No single research organization has all the answers, and there is no single source for best practices. New ideas are being passed
person-to-person, hour-by-hour, across the globe. Enterprise Membership plugs your entire organization into HCI's network of the executives in human capital and business strategy, from over 50,000 corporate, government and academic organizations in 172 countries - as well as marquee thought leaders, and dozens of the world's leading business schools.
