Have you noticed that when you decide to

buy a particular car, you suddenly start to

see a lot of them around?



Why Talent is Invisible



The View from the Top

Who’s got talent?



Where Do Metrics Fit In?



Where Is Value Added?



What Does It All Depend On?



The Traditional Data Collection Process

The Impact

Data is not current

Data is not complete

Data is not accurate

Zero value for data provider

The Problems

Too complex

Too expensive

Too administrative

Too difficult to scale



The New Data Collection Process

The Effect

More Data=More Value

Data Quality Improves

Large Data Sets To Analyze

The Solutions

Make it Useful

Make it Simple

Make it Cheap

Make it Scalable



Principle 1 : Tap Into The Power of Self-Direction

Trying to identify, control and manage the actions and

desires of each person is impossible



Principle 2 : Provide Simple, Intuitive Cross Platform Technology

Make it accessible, engaging and adaptive



Principle 3 : Constantly Create Value For The User

Personalize, Contextualize, Prioritize and Customize



Principle 4 : Mine Data To Create Value For The Company

Create the ability to ask any question, anytime and

interrogate any data set in real-time



The Message In A Nutshell

Create a reason for 90% of the people in your company to tell you more about themselves,

Give them a reason to keep giving you that information,

Mine that information for insight,

Use that insight to solve your talent challenges

THE NUMBER ONE METRIC

Your ability to create that insight, at scale, in real-time.



If you always do, what you’ve always done,

You’ll always get, what you have always gotten.
