Talent Agility

Mergers. Acquisitions. Joint ventures. This is the reality of business today, and aligning human capital and focusing on organizational effectiveness can make or break an integration. Paragon helps you successfully integrate the talent and cultures for the new organization using tools, assessments, and coordinated processes. As your talent integration partners, we help you avoid the pitfalls of missed targets, low morale, loss of key people, and poor performance in your core business.

The current state of most company’s succession planning is bleak. According to the Corporate Executive Board, organizations fail to identify 50% of their positions with pre-identified successors. Executives have the lowest succession plan success rate, filling only 28% of jobs with pre-identified successors. Many organizations struggle with having ready now talent, but why should we even bother spending time trying to improve a company’s internal talent pipeline given the realities of our world today?

Paragon is here to help you achieve your goals. We examine what organizations are doing to stay relevant and competitive in this fast-paced world. We then develop a talent strategy using smart processes and tools in order to understand the implications of every talent choice our clients can make today and in the future. Our simple approach to talent agility creates an agile, ready-now pipeline and clear development strategies to close the gaps with successors.
