Talent Intelligence

"Talent intelligence" is a new HR discipline that uses labor market data, skills data, and competitive market data to help companies understand skills gaps, recruiting strategies, and opportunities for internal redeployment and job redesign.

Talent intelligence brings together AI and large data sets to let companies leverage job market data, skills data, and real world worker profiles to help companies plan and implement many new talent strategies. These include:

Strategic sourcing to find candidate skills by location, age, and other demographics.

Identification of competitor skills and jobs and organization structures to better plan response.

Using AI to build skills-based career paths, talent mobility programs, and identify adjacent skills for employee development.

Identifying pay equity gaps, leadership candidates, and other important talent needs based on AI-inferred skills, experiences, and employee performance data.

Our research on Talent Intelligence shows that this approach is rapidly replacing traditional "prehire to retire" talent management with a much more AI-enabled, dynamic, externally focused process.
