Organizations are now starting to define their future talent requirements as part of their annual workforce plan. New skills such as data analytics, digital diagnostics and economic development and planning will be key to ensuring that they have the right organizational capability to support future citizens' needs.
It is vital that organizations continue to assess their talent needs and to refresh their understanding of what talent may be required in the future. It is evident that the workforce shape and skill base will change over time to reflect the changing services and delivery models in both public and private sectors. A good example of this is the rise in the use of Talent Management Best Practices Standards that has been implemented in various organizations all over Africa.
Knowledge capture is also becoming more important as senior talent continues to leave the organization through retirement. The importance of capturing and transferring this knowledge to younger staff is a critical activity for any Authority. Knowledge capture is not only about updating core systems and documents but also involves a focused approach to mentoring and coaching to up skill staff.
