Talent Management and Poaching Talent
But with the advent of globalization that has thrown open global market places, organizations and industries are growing at blistering pace. It is getting difficult to develop people at the same pace. The heat is being felt equally at the top as well as bottom level positions. There is shortage of skilled workers are the lower level and an equal dearth of people in leadership positions. Whats more, organizations fail to understand how to retain the existent talent, compensation (financial and otherwise), rewards and recognition all have failed organizations in helping them retain people of skill and choice. An even more difficult aspect is to identify the right people for development for leadership positions. Needless to mention here organizations want talent up and down the hierarchy and when they fail to retain the same, they poach. If I am an organization that believes in having talent onboard and I recognize talent in some organization, I have every right to poach the same, provided I can compensate him/her in terms of growth, learning and opportunity! Poaching is not unethical on the part of any organization. In fact it showcases a flaw in the organizations retention strategy from where the person is being poached. It basically means that there is fundamentally something wrong in the way the organization compensates its employees. This is one of the biggest challenges to talent management. Consider the following facts:
This is the cost of poaching to both the organizations, the one that is getting people onboard and the one that is losing people. While poaching is not a new concept, what should be of more concern to HR is why do people leave and how to retain them. Its none other than the talent management that has to come out with a solution.
