Simply put, a Career System is an integrated process for bringing in, managing, and developing talent. People want to know that wherever they are in the business, they can learn, grow, and develop. You want to know that the right people are in the right places at the right time for business success. That’s what a career system does for you.
The Odyssey Group can help you build a career system or tailor and align existing career system elements. Developing goals, priorities, and measures of success early in the project help ensure the return you want on investing in career development. Since the essence of any career system is information about the work of the business, you may want to begin developing your system with competency models.
In addition to competency models, your career system is likely to include job posting, interviewing tools, development planning, job rotation or temporary assigments, education and training, and talent inventories among other things.
We work with you to identify what you have that works and priority items to develop or integrate so that your career management and development components work together.
