The Challenge:

Our client, a Fortune 50 technology company, announced a new strategic 10-year company vision to be known not only for their innovations in technology—but also to be known as an inspiration to innovators everywhere. So, they asked us to help them create a strategy to develop internal talent and attract external talent.

The Solution:

Discovery

With the core project team, we began by defining the challenge and aligning around clear objectives and success criteria. With those in place, we interviewed the CEO and CHRO to better understand their goals and non-negotiables with this strategy. We also engaged HR leaders across the organization in collaborative input sessions to leverage their insight and capture their ideas.

Design

To shape the strategy, we designed and facilitated two co-creation workshops that brought some of the best minds in the organization together. The first helped define the target personas, guiding principles, and prioritized opportunities to address. For our personas and prioritization, we decided to focus on Executives, people managers, current employees, client-facing HR, and certain external organizations. The second workshop focused on drafting several roadmaps of initiatives that bring the strategy to life.

Delivery

With the core team, we synthesized the workshop outputs into a robust strategy that could be shared with leaders and executives for their feedback. We also supported the core team in aligning on next steps, including defining experiments, roles, and timelines.
