    Every talent management in use today was developed half a century ago.  It's time for a new model.

    Failures in talent management are an ongoing source of pain for executives in modern organizations. Over the past generation, talent management practices, especially in the United States, have by and large been dysfunctional, leading corporations to lurch from surpluses of talent to shortfalls to surpluses and back again. It’s time for a fundamentally new approach to talent management that takes into account the great uncertainty businesses face today.

    Fortunately, companies already have such a model, one that has been well honed over decades to anticipate and meet demand in uncertain environmentsundefinedsupply chain management. By borrowing lessons from operations and supply chain research, firms can forge a new model of talent management better suited to today’s realities. This report looks at the context in which talent management has evolved over the past few decades and its current state.

    Recruitment Process Outsourcing is a type of Business Process Outsourcing (BPO).

    Business Process Outsourcing is defined as the contracting of a specific business task to a third-party service provider. Cost savings is usually the primary driver for business process outsourcing. RPO is the outsourcing of all or part of the recruiting process to an external business provider. The service provider may act as a virtual recruiting department for the company by providing all of the skills, technologies and activities needed for recruiting or may provide only select components and processes within the recruiting cycle.

    Finding, hiring, and keeping top talent is a challenge for any company.

    In this paper, the authors discuss why and how to address these issues, as well as some additional challenges specific companies pose (such as location). They emphasize using a variety of recruiting options and asking the right questions to determine cultural fit and commitment. They warn against being overly optimistic, especially when hiring for the managerial level. They discuss how to establish a more effective hiring process to curtail the hidden costs of bad hires. And finally, they share insight on how work environment, challenging projects that maximize employees' talents, and thoughtful, appreciative perks can help retain that top talent once hired.

    Without question, the employer may determine that a termination is justified, that not terminating based on certain conduct would establish a bad precedent and send a very negative message to other employees as well as potentially driving away customers from your business.  A decision to retain an employee given certain types of conduct may also result in increased liability for the company. 

    The purpose of this paper is not to dissuade an employer from terminating an employee, but rather to make sure that the matter is fully explored before a final decision is made.
