Talent Development
Leadership programs, succession and talent reviews that build the bench a business needs next.
Division Leadership Development Program
Partnered with an external provider on a division-sponsored program, now in its fifth year.
Cross-regional talent exchanges
Organized four talent exchanges between the US/Sweden and India/China, with development assignments focused on critical business priorities.
From tactical HR to strategic partner
Realigned HR managers to area business leaders, automated or moved clerical work to self-service, replaced three tactical roles with strategic hires, and gave every team member a budgeted development plan. HR became part of every stage of the employee lifecycle; managers said they hadn't known what they were missing.
Talent review
Facilitated talent reviews, with follow-up on development plans for high potentials and low performers.
Company-wide learning & development strategy
Convened a cross-functional leadership team to create a tailored L&D strategy supporting the business goal of “Accelerating the Transformation.”
Leadership course facilitation
Facilitated MBTI, DDI and CMC leadership courses on a range of leadership topics.
First Talent Development Manager
Defined a new role from scratch: interviewed SVPs, GMs and HR directors, then built talent development strategies for two global business units totaling 2,400 employees. The framework became the default strategy template for the whole Talent Development team.
Conversations that Count
Led the team that replaced annual performance reviews with regular performance conversations, building two 4-hour courses for leaders and individual contributors with an external vendor. Rolled out companywide; parts are still in use more than 10 years later.
Mentoring programs
Led mentoring programs for internal teams and various organizations, covering training, matching, development resources, check-ins and wrap-up.
Succession and China leadership bench
Led talent review and succession strategy with custom development plans for high potentials; assessed TI China's leadership bench as part of the China HR priority team.
Global high-potential programs
Designed and facilitated high-potential programs worldwide with C-suite engagement and action learning.
