Talent Review Tools FAQs

Show +Hide -

Why are talent reviews important?

A talent review is an important meeting where leaders and managers come together to assess the state of their talent. Talent reviews help identify who’s doing the best work, who’s ready for promotion, and who might be a retention risk.

When done well, talent reviews fuel the future success of an organization. They’ll give you a clear, real-time understanding of your talent pipeline so you can make the right decisions at the right time and retain top talent.

What are some talent review best practices?

Here are five talent review best practices guaranteed to help you optimize your approach:

  1. Make sure your talent review process is agile.
    You can’t understand your people, their performance, and your opportunities if you’re only discussing talent once a year. Keep your talent review process frequent and adaptable.
  2. Evaluate talent at all levels of the organization.
    Most organizations only conduct talent reviews at the Director level and above. But this approach is limiting and disengaging. There are high-potential employees at every level of your organization who should be given growth opportunities or might be at risk for turnover.
  3. Encourage collaboration and calibration.
    The modern organization is less hierarchical and more collaborative than ever before. Employees often interact with cross-functional teams and other leaders. Your talent review process should account for these relationships and experiences.
  4. Root talent decisions in better data.
    Many organizations use less-than-reliable data to fuel important talent decisions. The traditional 9-box has become a widely accepted practice for rating talent. But there are many issues with this approach.
  5. Rely on technology to help carry the load.
    You might think frequent and collaborative talent reviews sound like a lot of work. That’s because leaders spend hours upon hours manually gathering, organizing, and presenting the data back to reviewers. But this doesn’t have to be the case! You need to find technology that supports your efforts and that creates efficiencies in your talent review process.
