- Abstract: Have you given enough thought to how you are empowering the “middle” of your organization? The market has been focused on leveraging their top talent, investing in high-potentials and preparing executives. But in the midst of all this segmentation, have you thought about the “engine” of your workforce -- your middle management and consistent performers? Over the last several years, companies have asked their employees to do “more with less,” increase innovation, collaborate and work globally. However, many have failed to give the middle of the organization the support it needs to succeed in today’s modern work environment. Join Stacey Harris, Director of Strategic HR Research, and Stacia Garr, Senior Analyst for TM, as they share recent Bersin & Associates’ findings regarding the impact of increasing the capabilities of line managers and the value of motivating and empowering middle performers. The discussion will include examples of how leading organizations are developing leaders from the bottom up, providing tools to help the middle do their job more effectively and improving enterprise career management strategies. Specific case examples will be included in the presentation.
- A perfect example of this is the dramatic turnaround taking place at Ford Motor Co. Ford’s business is now growing. Their engineering team is actively launching electric vehicles and new embedded communications technology, and they are growing their business in China and India. The new Ford Figo, a car specifically designed for the Indian marketplace, was just rated the Indian Car of the Year for 2011. This is the type of global innovation that organizations in financial services, manufacturing, information services, and technology are striving to execute in the coming few years.
- Consistent Performers60% to 70% of the population who receive good or very good (but not exceptional) on performance reviews – often these are employee’s who excel at the technical aspects, are focused on integrity, but may not be able to manage the relationships required to create great business impact. Employee’s not slated as high-potentials or high-performers within an organizationEmployee’s not identified as part of a critical or pivotal talent segment for an organizationEmployee’s who have slowed down their career for personal reasons or have no interest in moving beyond their current roles. One HRB report on B players estimated that 20% of today’s B players, were recovering “A” player’s who have chosen work-life balance, over the high-potential path. This is a growing issue for many organizations. B players' defining characteristic is their aversion to calling attention to themselves - even when they need to. They are like the proverbial wheel that never squeaks -Indeed, we've found that the quickest way of identifying the B players is to list the people who make the fewest demands on the CEO's time.
- Line Managers Supervisors, Managers, Some Directors (Not Part of a High-Potential Program)Managers who have not moved “up” or “over” for several years, and are content to stay in their current position. Managers who’s direct reports have “good” but not “exceptional” engagement scores Managers who have slowed down their career for personal reasons
- Improved delivery of solutions to executives and new employee’s improve efficiency by 5%, but improved delivery of solutions to all employee’s reduces efficiencies by 5% (trying to boil the ocean or spread peanut butter over everything).
- Effective HR ApproachEmployment FundamentalsCapable ManagersPerforming WorkforceMeeting Business Goals
- Industry: Financial ServicesEmployees: over 7,000Previous State: One of the three business units at TravelEx (approximately 1,100 employees) recently automated their performance management process, but found it was still not driving the desired impact.Action: Employees enter goals into their online goal management system, and are required to work with managers to break goals down into quarterly and then monthly goalsEmployees and managers are prompted quarterly, and sometimes monthly, to discuss goal progress, creating an occasion to both celebrate successes and identify areas that need more attentionResult: According to a sampling of managers and employees, performance conversations are more frequent, authentic and useful than they were before. This is still an ongoing effort, but the early feedback has been overwhelmingly positive.
- Soft Skills include: DelegatingTime managementTransitioning from an individual contributor to managerTeam developmentResolving interpersonal conflict
- “46% of organizations highly effective at increasing the engagement, retention and teamwork of their mid-level managers focus on communications in their curriculum”
- Work is increasingly virtual, transparent, collaborative and dispersed. Organizations are flatter. Careers zig and zag. Information flows in all directions. The result? The corporate ladder model—and the outdated norms and expectations that defines it--is collapsing. High-impact organizations are focusing on talent mobility in positions other than management and leadership. These organizations are proactively responding to the shift necessary to leverage talent within organizations. Their overall competitive position in the market place is far superior to those organizations who still view talent mobility through only the ‘ladder’ lens. The Deloitte corporate lattice model provides a broad perspective on talent mobility and development. It moves organizations from a view centered strictly on vertical progression toward varied functional and lateral paths that are in step with individuals’ career life goals and the organizations business goals. It formalizes opportunities for employees to progress horizontally – an acute need as organizations flatten today. This lattice model to talent mobility helps organizations develop the breadth and depth of capabilities that they need to compete and thrive.

- Example from a solution provider we work with. This shows all the aspects of a people profile in one place. The cool thing about people profiles is the transparency they create. Employees can communicate via what they include about what they are interested in doing and the skills they have currently. This information can be supplemented by HR and the employee’s manager. So decisions HR needs to make are: What needs to be filled in by HRWhat needs to be filled in by employeeWhat needs to be completed by managerNow, let’s move on to an example of how Lockheed Martin is using technology to drive its career management process.
