Our last post addressed a talent deployment strategy to work on complex knowledge-intensive problem areas in an enterprise. The tactics here apply to commercial and institutional enterprises. Mid-size and big enterprises need a way to deploy needed talent– before, during, and after an incident. Using outside “right talent” can often be faster and simpler, even if you have internal resources.
For more than 200 years enterprises have called on skilled talent in widely recognized areas:
1) Legal/government relations (communications)
2) Banking/finance/accounting
3) Security (military/related)
4) Production (manufacturing, logistics, operations)
5) Talent
In the 21st Century, enterprise management needs even more talent. Expertise is a distilled result of experience, knowledge, and know-how. Problem-areas/examples can be:
a) knowledge-intensive (computer-related security, biosafety, environmental hazards, energy, manufacturing),
b) intricate to legal, regulatory, and standards, ([inter]national, state, local, industry)
c) hard to grasp because of scale, rapid rate of change, or confusing data
The acquisition and deployment of the talent is explored in our Serial Lore “The Hunt for Talent”.
Check in for the next post in the series tomorrow.
