A robust people process provides a powerful framework for determining the organization’s talent needs over time, and for planning actions that will meet those needs. It is based on the following building blocks: Linkage to the strategic plan and its near-, medium-, and long-term milestones and the operating plan target, including specific financial targets. Developing the leadership pipeline through continuous improvement, succession depth, and reducing retention risk. Deciding what to do about nonperformers. Transforming the mission and operations of HR.
