What is a talented employee? There is no single answer to this question in the business world — all entrepreneurs and experts have their own stance on this issue.

Additionally, you will review the basic steps of talent management and learn how to assess your employees' skills.

The most costly mistake you can make during recruiting is hiring a candidate who is unsuitable for the position in terms of their competencies, motivation and values. But how do you choose the right person from dozens, hundreds or even thousands of candidates and not regret it? This is what we will talk about in this lesson. You will learn what to do once the right candidates have joined your company. We will teach you how to select the best of them and evaluate the competencies that you need in your company.

In the additional materials, you will find a guide to the STAR method — a behavioural type of interview — and study the classification of methods for assessing competencies by category and measurement efficiency.

You already know that talent is not only about a person’s natural abilities. These are competencies that have been developed to a high level. But some people already have impressive starting skills, while others have to work hard to acquire them. So in this lesson, you will discover how to help any employee maximise their potential and become a talent for your company. You will realise what opportunities to give to those who have already begun to realise their talent, and how to unlock the potential of those who are not yet confident in their abilities.

Additionally, you will receive instructions for conducting one-to-one sessions, and you will find check-up statements that will help you learn how engaged in the business affairs your company’s employees are.
