It is often said, may be too many times, that it is necessary to recruit the right people for the right jobs. However, you often find people employed for the wrong jobs. Apart from this, the responsibilities of a certain job may change over time.

Talent management means that employees are transferred to equivalent jobs within the department or organization.

It can also involve movement up and down the hierarchical ladder. Promoted people who cannot perform have no choice but to return to their former jobs or equivalent ones.

An organization may promote the wrong person based on many reasons. The “who you know” plays a part. I had personally experienced serious problems resulting from the promotion of an officer did not know much about the new job. Everybody suffered and he became a joke in the organization.

Drawing up a plan is important. More importantly, the people who manage systems, departments and employees play a more crucial role.
