MMT Chats: Managing Talent, Moving Along and Making Money

^{This episode is brought to you by}^ISCAR^{with New Ideas for Machining Intelligently.}

“2030 is a very real phenomenon,” says MMT Editorial Advisory Board Member and founder of Human Asset Management Marion Wells. And this is something I’ve been speaking to her about for a few years now. We’ve done articles and presentations together on this topic, but it has been a while. Listen in to this very candid conversation about how COVID-19 has impacted our “2030 deadline” (2030 is the tipping point of when the last baby boomer turns 65. And for most organizations, that could be a disruptor).

Here are just a few tidbits from this conversation to whet your appetite for our full conversation:

Managing a crisis upon a crisis—navigating 2030 in the COVID age.
We need to be more openminded about approaching talent and managing relationships internally and externally.
Manufacturers need a pioneering attitude because we are all in this together.
COVID has provided opportunities for different kinds of discussion in the boardroom to the lunchroom.
It’s about “eating elephants – a little at a time”.
We’ll never settle back into where we can put it on automatic.
Has COVID made you more resilient, smarter, and more forward-thinking to prepare better?
It’s now talent management not human resources.
New employee qualities agility, flexibility, anticipating, resilience, caution … and understanding advanced technology.
It’s an employee market; not an employer market.
Businesses will have customized relationships between employers and employees.
Defining essential and nonessential workers.
Re-evaluating cost structures.
Managing work/life balance.
Understanding what’s in between business and results—people.
Talent optimization.
How do you get the work done? How do we design, organize, hire and inspire?
