Attracting and retaining critical talent is increasingly viewed as a top strategic issue by C-suite executives and members of boards of directors, as well as senior human resources (HR) executives. The challenge to win the hearts and minds of talent is tougher than ever.
Organizations that create talent management strategies that align people with business objectives can conquer challenges and create competitive advantage.
The Aerospace & Defense (A&D) industry has made significant progress in the area of talent management over the past decade. Although this progress is encouraging, a number of external factors are now making it necessary for A&D organizations to become even better at attracting and retaining critical talent. These include:
- Competition for a shrinking pool of potential resources
- Increased turnover in engineering and program management
- Increased competition from other high technology players
