Part1: The plan

There are few changes that we propose to make:

Changes in management:

1-CHRO should dismiss the organization with severance package.

2-The CMO should assume the role of CHRO. (The new CMO is very driven and she works in a very collaborative way with her direct team and organization. She is known for encouraging her managers to provide coaching and feedback to their people. Her people view her style and approach as a refreshing change over the past. which is why she should be the new CHRO)

3-The R&D VP should be promoted to CMO of the organization. (He’s creative and has ideas. He worked closely with the CMO -who’s taking over the CHRO role- He needs to have people in his R&D team who are able to collaborate with him, drive result, and deliver.)

4- COO should work hand in hand with the CHRO. (His style is very much that of command and control, but he does produce strong manufacturing results, although people generally do not like working in his organization. He is considered an industry expert in the manufacturing of the specialty telecom products. His expertise has clearly provided the company with competitive advantages in the past. Therefor, he needs work hand in hand with the the CHRO to make his employees more productive and driven.)

Talent Management Strategic Plan:

1- Talent Acquisition: Identify talent within the organization and evaluate employees and new hires by using outsourced company, which specializes in balancing the organization's responsibilities through a comprehensive library of highly regarded assessments and surveys. http://www.wonderlic.com/

2- Engagement:

· Define engagement goals in realistic, everyday terms. To bring engagement to life, leaders must make engagement goals meaningful to employees' day-to-day experiences. Describing what success looks like using powerful descriptions and emotive language helps give meaning to goals and builds commitment within a team. Make sure that managers discuss employee engagement at weekly meetings, in action-planning sessions, and in one-on-one meetings with employees to weave engagement into daily interactions and activities and to make it part of the workplace's DNA.

· Focus on engagement at the local and organizational levels. Real change occurs at the local workgroup level, but it happens only when company leaders set the tone from the top. Companies realize the most benefit from engagement initiatives when leaders weave employee engagement into performance expectations for managers and enable them to execute on those expectations. Managers and employees must feel empowered to make a significant difference in their immediate environment. Leaders and managers should work with employees to identify barriers to engagement and opportunities to effect positive change. Employees are familiar with the company's processes, systems, products, and customers. They are also experts on themselves and their teams. So it makes sense that they will have the best ideas to maximize these elements and deliver improved performance, business innovation, and better workplace experiences.

3- Retention:

· Corporate culture. To come up with creative ideas, employees need a few guiding principles. Make sure they know your company's vision and keep it in mind when they're developing ideas and solutions. Sometimes, an office space, no matter how casual it is, can still be stifling. For a change of pace, try venturing off-site such as a restaurant, park, beach, you name it. You may be surprised at the ideas you or your coworkers come up with in a more relaxed and positive environment.

· Teamwork. Let employees know the importance of the new project and how they should prioritize it within their current project schedule. Remind them not to make snap judgments. Especially on cross-functional teams, team members' beliefs, attitudes and communication styles may collide. Let everyone know that you expect respect for all differing points of view, and advise participants to keep an open mind.

· Sense of ownership. You can achieve this by placing more responsibility (and therefore trust) in their hands when it comes to decision making. You can also give them a boost with leadership training and discussions about career ladders.
