A Comprehensive Guide On Internal Mobility

Introduction To Internal Mobility

According to market research firm Bersin & Associates, internal mobility, also known as talent mobility, is "a dynamic internal mechanism for transferring personnel from job to role – at the leadership, professional, and operational levels." The company continues by saying that in order to build a flexible and long-lasting organization, it will be essential to have the ability to move workers as needed.

Internal mobility has several advantages for any company, including time and money savings over external hiring, improved employee retention rates, and more varied and creative work cultures.

Internal mobility is also shown through observations with global firms to be:

  • A strategy that encourages adaptability and agility within the company.
  • A plan for recruiting and retaining top talent and future leaders.
  • A recruiting strategy that gives internal sourcing priority over costly external hiring.
  • A method that uses development to balance individual and organizational needs.
  • Planning for succession should be continual and proactive rather than reactive.

An organized talent mobility strategy assists organizations in more successfully recruiting, aligning, developing, engaging, and retaining high-performing and prospective employees by creating a continuous, repeatable, and global process for talent rotation. This research examines the value of a talent mobility strategy, the method for creating and executing it, and the significant business benefits it provides.

Current Challenges & Obstacles

According to the findings of the State of Global Talent Management 2010 research conducted among 300 human resources (HR) professionals, many businesses today confront similar challenges, such as:

• Preserving top performers and reducing flight

• Coordinating the current and future demands of the business with the need for talent

• Developing deep talent pools and bench strength

• Reducing the cost of recruiting foreigners

• Improving total HR measurement and reporting

Organizations battle these issues as a result of procedural and technological obstacles. From a procedural basis, just 35% of firms now complete annual succession talent reviews for the bulk of their important roles. Although firms are increasingly extending succession planning throughout the whole organization, many still lack the leadership backing and enterprise technologies required to effectively manage and automate the process. Contrarily, the majority of organizations' succession planning methods are often slow, labor-intensive, manual, and reactive.

Most businesses still lack a single, complete technical image of the world's talent due to a patchwork of existing HR practices, tools, and data (i.e., there is no definitive talent-based system of record). Only 12% of organizations' procedures and technology have been fully integrated with regard to talent operations such as performance, succession, development, learning, recruiting, compensation, and others. An in-depth discussion of integration, a key component of a strategy for systematic internal mobility, will be included in this research.

Conclusion

Internal mobility has been a common people management strategy due to its ability to help firms more effectively find, align, develop, engage, and keep their high-performing and potential employees. There are challenges and barriers for many businesses, but they are not insurmountable. Innovative HR directors may readily take on jobs like successfully planning for success, recruiting personnel in fresh and inventive methods, game planning (asking the right questions), and putting in place a solitary, all-encompassing business IT platform to enable mobility.
