Hablando de gestión del Talento y realizando una revisión demográfica es interesante este resumen, del Annual Report de WPP, que analiza el mercado global. Nos muestra, como lo han hecho muchos informes hasta la fecha, la dificultad que habrá en un futuro no muy lejano para encontrar profesionales con experiencia en gestión que puedan cubrir el relevo generacional.
En un periodo de crísis como el actual, en el que nuestros problemas inmediatos son otros puede que carezca de interés para muchos. Sin embargo, si tiene un impacto en la selección de gestores en Medianas empresas, sobre todo familiares, que han o van a contratar gestores profesionales.
Tenemos tendencia a relacionar esta información con algo que está muy presente a día de hoy en la mente de muchos Ejecutivos, que han considerado que los perfiles de largos recorrido no eran buenos para gestionar el cambio necesario en épocas de crisis. Se marcharán estos profesionales que hemos contratado para ayudarnos a superar la crísis, y que nos han permitido tomar decisiones difíciles, y entonces ¿a quién contrataremos?
Que tengais una buena lectura…
«The paradox of talent in an age of overcapacity»
«Attracting, recruiting, developing, training, motivating, incentivising and retaining human capital remains crucial. While there is certainly too much production and capacity in general, one resource is in ever shorter supply in the 21st century – talent. Every statistic points to a reduction. The slowing birth rate, declining marriage rates, more working women, higher divorce rates, more single-parent families, smaller families, ageing populations – all these factors are reducing the supply of talent.

Even countries with strong, younger demographics, such as Mexico, will face similar situations by 2020. Some governments are trying to stimulate the birth rate. The Chinese government is said to be reviewing the one-baby policy and Russia is worried about its ageing 143 million population. Western Europe and Japan face significant longer-term economic growth issues as a result of the declining proportion of young people and an overall population decline. The elected and then rejected Prime Minister Shinzo Abe of Japan wanted to stimulate the Japanese birth rate, as one way of strengthening the economic growth rate. That is one reason why the rapid inclusion of Turkey into the EU is so important: another source of population growth as well as immigrants to stimulate economic growth and provide access to the Muslim world.
In a less differentiated world, it will become more and more important for companies to stand out through the quality and responsiveness of their people. Making sure that your people buy into your strategy and structure will be increasingly important. Living the brand – operationally – will be critical.» http://www.wpp.com/wpp/
