About this package

Recognising and developing talent involves more than identifying employees for promotion. It means noticing capability, understanding where people could contribute in future, and providing opportunities that help them grow. This package examines the talent management arrangements already available within an organisation and how to judge their value. It connects individual development with organisational capability, giving learners a practical basis for reviewing how their organisation identifies, nurtures and retains talent.

The first part maps existing opportunities, including development plans, development programmes, mentoring, coaching, succession planning, career pathways and internal mobility. Learners consider the purpose of each approach, the employees it serves and its contribution to future organisational needs. The content also explores how relationships and movement between roles can reveal potential that is not visible in someone’s current job. Fair access is an important consideration: development opportunities should not depend solely on chance encounters or informal connections.

The second part shifts from identifying opportunities to evaluating their effectiveness. Learners examine strengths and limitations in relation to employee development, retention and business needs. Participation, progression and retention data provide evidence of what is happening, while employee and manager feedback helps explain whether opportunities are accessible, relevant and useful in practice. This distinction matters because a busy programme of activities does not, by itself, demonstrate that employees are progressing or that organisational capability is improving.

The package brings these strands together through practical recommendations for improving talent management. Learners consider what is working, where gaps remain and how existing arrangements could better support development and retention. Feedback about timing, workload cover, shift patterns and eligibility helps them look beyond attendance figures to the barriers employees may face. The focus is on making informed improvements to talent practice in their own organisation, rather than simply adding more development activities.

Who it’s for

This package suits managers, team leaders and HR or people-development staff who help identify and develop talent. It is particularly relevant to those reviewing existing development opportunities and recommending improvements within their own organisation.

What’s covered

  1. Mapping core talent management opportunities

    Examine development plans, development programmes, succession planning and other structured ways to identify and prepare employees for future needs. Consider each opportunity’s purpose, intended employees and contribution to organisational capability.

  2. Mentoring, coaching and mobility pathways

    Explore how mentoring, coaching, career pathways and internal moves can support development and reveal previously unseen strengths. Consider who benefits from these opportunities and whether access is fair rather than accidental.

  3. Evaluating effectiveness using organisational evidence

    Review participation, progression and retention data to assess the strengths and limitations of existing talent arrangements. Distinguish between activities taking place and evidence of improvements in employee development, retention and business outcomes.

  4. Using feedback to improve talent practice

    Explore how employee and manager feedback can reveal whether opportunities are accessible, relevant and useful at work. Identify meaningful patterns and turn the findings into practical recommendations for improving talent development and retention.

Learning outcomes

By completing this package, learners can:

  • Describe existing talent management opportunities within an organisation, including development programmes, succession planning, mentoring, coaching and internal mobility options.
