Retain Key Talent While Building Bench Strength

Challenge:

Retain Key Talent While Building Bench Strength

Historically, turnover was largely a non-issue for the regional branch of a prestigious federal agency employing nearly 500 scientists, engineers, economists, and other highly skilled professionals. Today, however, the agency faces major talent shortages due to an aging workforce.

Solution:

Develop Customized HR Planning Process to Address Recruitment & Retention

To address the prospect of significant staff shortages in the future, Chatfield Global LLC developed a customized HR Planning Process designed to strengthen the agency’s recruitment and retention efforts.

The project included the development of a customized competency model, management training, and training of a facilitation team to implement an organization-wide talent-assessment process.

Within 6 months, the agency deployed the talent assessment process through the "train the trainer" facilitator team model and was actively implementing an updated acquisition strategy to attract new talent.
