If succession planning works, how do the wrong people so often get to the top? And how come the diversity at the bottom of organizations isn’t reflected higher up?

Please join us in our upcoming Webinar on

“The Talent Wave”

by UK Based

 Prof. David Clutterbuck

Standard approaches to succession planning and talent management are based on the mistaken assumption that relationships between employees and their employer form a simple, linear system – and are therefore relatively stable and controllable. In reality, these relationships form a complex, adaptive system, which can only be influenced, and where attempts to control often end up with the opposite results to those intended.

Date: November 10th 2015

Time: 7:00-8:00 pm (Dubai Time)

In this intensive webinar you will:

• Learn how standard HR approaches to talent identification, development and promotion are increasingly part of the problem, rather than part of the solution
• Gain an insight into how a complex, adaptive systems approach creates dynamic and flexible alignment between the aspirations of organisations and those of their talented employees
• Take home some practical tools for making the shift from talent management as a controlling and predictive activity to one that enables and empowers talent to emerge (why less is more!)
• Discover how to re-position "HR Bling”, so that it supports rather than undermines honest developmental conversations
