“Creating a high-performance culture” – as learning and talent management professionals, this is something we hear about often. But what is the best way to achieve this?

Through the alignment of learning and performance processes including cascading goals, linking personal goals to organizational goals, learning and talent management leaders can communicate required competencies and identify potential skill gaps. Learning priorities are then based on performance goals and from identified skill and competency gaps a personalized learning path can be created that provides tailored development linking back to performance goals.

Sound like talent management Nirvana? Not sure where to start? It’s more attainable than you think. Join us as we discuss how your people and your organization can benefit by connecting performance and learning to create a high-performance culture. During this webinar we will discuss how you can:

• Connect learning and talent processes to tie learning to goals and performance
• Leverage Talent Expansion technologies to cascade goals throughout the organization, provide contextual learning and give people the tools they need to be great at their jobs
• Set and measure learning and talent management results with integrated analytics
• Start building your integrated learning and talent management program immediately with a few easy steps
