  • Linking Talent to Value
    April 2018 Linking talent to value Getting the best people into the most important roles does not happen by chance; it requires a disciplined look at where the organization really creates value and how top talent contributes. by Mike Barriere, Miriam Owens, and Sarah Pobereskin To understand how difficult it is for senior leaders to link their companies’ business and talent priorities, consider the blind spot of a CEO we know. When asked to identify the critical roles in his company, the CEO neglected to mention the account manager for a key customer, in part because the position was not prominent in any organization chart. By just about any other criterion, though, this was one of the most important roles in the company, critical to current performance and future growth. The role demanded a high degree of responsibility, a complex set of interpersonal and technical skills, and an ability to respond deftly to the client’s rapidly changing needs. Yet the CEO was not carefully tracking the position. The company was unaware of the incumbent’s growing dissatisfaction with her job. And there was no succession plan in place for the role. When the incumbent account manager, a very high performer, suddenly took a job at another company, the move stunned her superiors. As performance suffered, they scrambled to cover temporarily, and then to fill, a mission-critical role. Disconnects such as this between talent and value are risky business—and regrettably common. Gaining a true understanding of who your top talent is and what your most critical roles are is a challenging task.

  • Fortune 50 (F50): While There Is a Large Amount of Innovation Going
    Fortune 50 (F50): While there is a large amount of innovation going on in start- ups, Fortune 500 (F500) companies which are all about scale and results, are still responsible for a large part of the impactful innovation driving the economy, if not directly from their internal powerhouse, through acquisitions of start-ups that can provide them with the innovation format and content they need. In many company lists published in the media (Fortune 2018 Business by design List, Fortune 10 Most Successful Companies, Fortune 10 Most Profitable Companies, BCG Most Innovative Companies), the large majority of companies been cited are still large companies, independently if they are F500 or not. Some have stated the F500 is a very US centric list of corporations that does not express reality of design executive presence in large corporations throughout the world (e.g.: Italy, Germany, Japan, France, UK, etc.) where designers might have executive roles. There are two explanations for this decision, one is based on recent research that clearly states that ‘the United States is still considered the world’s number 1 economy and has been so since 1871 (Investopedia, 2017). Though this might be disputed because China has been gaining the U.S for a number of years, if one looks at nominal GDP, the U.S. maintains its leadership, followed by China and Japan. According to research on this topic, ‘large U.S. corporations also play a major role on the global stage, with more than a fifth of companies on the Fortune Global 500 coming from the United States’ (Focus Economics, 2018).
