11. HR Talent Management
“Quite possibly the biggest challenge that needs to occur in
HR has to do with talent management – not elsewhere in
organisations, but how talent management in HR is a case of
the shoemaker’s children lacking shoes. Our results suggest
that HR often doesn’t have the right talent; all too often it has
talent that is inferior to the talent in other parts of the
organization.”
Ed Lawler III
& John Boudreau (2009)

16. Why a national HR Standard?
• We need to improve the quality of HR
practice.
• HR will not be seen as a true profession
without standards.
• Inconsistencies – practices, sites, business
units, companies, industries.
• Too many bad examples of things going
wrong – Marikana, De Doorns, Medupi.
• Raising the bar for the HR profession and
business impact.
