Managing Talents
The management and development of talents is a vital aspect of Group HR strategy.
Managing the development of members of staff, whilst constantly reconciling the organization’s skill requirements and individual aspirations must enable Dexia to have the resources it needs offering the appropriate career prospects to its members of staff.
The talent review is an important stage of the Talent Management strategy. It aims at achieving a better knowledge of our internal talents and our needs and should allow to implement actions which deal with the issues identified.
A joint talent review process enables the Group and its entities to assess the situation each year with regard to its internal skills, the potential and the professional aspirations of its members of staff. This exercise allows to anticipate career developments and skill requirements and to prepare succession plans.
In order to sustain the development of talents, Dexia has put a unique Development Center methodology in place based on the Dexia leadership model and permitting the development of identified potential. Development Center Days aim to assess the situation regarding leadership skills and to implement an individual development plan preparing executives to manage their career evolution.
Assessment centers have also been developed on the basis of a common approach in order to give uniformity to the criteria and tools used both within the context of selecting external candidates and in internal promotion. Indeed, for selection at certain seniority levels, an identical assessment center will be called upon whatever the entity or the country in which the post is to be filled.
