Business leaders are looking to digitalization to create a higher-performing workforce, making digitalizing HR a top-priority initiative for chief HR officers (CHROs) this year, according to Gartner, Inc<\/a>. Digitalizing refers to the conversion of something (such as data) to a digital form – and HR is ahead of other top priorities such as performance management and creating a people analytics team.<\/p>\n

\u201cCEOs are looking to the HR function to drive digital transformation efforts and increase innovation across the organization,\u201d said\u00a0Brian Kropp<\/a>, group vice president of Gartner\u2019s HR practice. \u201cThe organizations that get it right and are able to improve their innovative effectiveness can increase annual revenue by as much as $8,800 per employee.\u201d<\/p>\n

Talent strategies for the digital age<\/strong><\/p>\n

A frequent and important question being debated by HR and business leaders is whether it is best to \u201cbuy or build\u201d digital talent. That is, should HR go outside the organization and find new candidates, or should the company develop current employees?<\/em> Gartner research found that companies should continue to do both, however, these strategies alone will not help them achieve their digital transformation goals. Organizations must also change the company from within to allow digital innovation to occur.<\/p>\n

Luckily, there are Talent Management solutions<\/a> available to purchase to help move the needle. Talent Management software is a type of technology that HR professionals use to manage employees in order to automate certain tasks and gain a competitive advantage. It can refer to standalone applications from niche vendors that specifically addresses one part of the employee lifecycle, such as a learning management system, or it can refer to a completely integrated software suite.<\/p>\n

Build a culture of network-based innovation<\/strong><\/p>\n

Leading organizations recognize that standard practices for attracting and retaining talent are not enough to promote a culture of innovation. Rather than strategies centered around building innovative individuals or innovative teams, Gartner\u2019s research found a broader, more network-based approach to cultivating innovation achieves the best results.<\/p>\n

To build a culture of network-based innovation, Gartner has identified three main strategies:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Involve employees beyond the idea-generation stage.<\/strong>\u00a0Giving employees more visibility into and ownership of which ideas to pursue ensures more employees are actively engaged in innovation at their company.<\/li>\n
  2. Shift leadership mindset to shared, not individual, risk taking.<\/strong>\u00a0HR should help functional leaders collaborate to gain a deeper understanding of how to take better digitally motivated risks and chances.<\/li>\n
  3. Supply employees with more guidance, not more access, on using networks to innovate.\u00a0<\/strong>HR leaders can gain traction and maintain momentum by considering how ideas move through their organization and equipping employees with a new outlook of who to work with \u2014 beyond the formal structure \u2014 and how to push ideas forward.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Building a strong and effective talent community<\/a> can help\u00a0build a culture of network-based innovation as well.\u00a0A talent community is considered to be a method of social recruiting by relying on the collection of talent networks of people that are part of the job seeking process. There are various benefits that come along with building talent communities, including the ability to fill job positions much more quickly.<\/p>\n

    Talent communities can play a major role as they consist of\u00a0a pool of engaged candidates who can be easily approached for new positions, and candidates who could have potential to work with a company. It allows members to freely exchange ideas and information about topics ranging from career advice to feedback on employee opportunities.<\/p>\n
