Respond to market pressures with an effective talent strategy

With in-depth market and industry knowledge, Mercer specialists empower your organisation to make smart talent-management and succession-planning decisions to achieve your business goals. Our talent solutions help you plan for the future, mitigate risk or react to opportunities — fast.

Nail your talent strategy to drive sustainable performance

The global recruitment market isn’t getting any less complex, so effective leadership is essential to success. Under the weight of social, economic and political issues, your organisation must acquire sharper, stronger and more vigilant leaders to navigate turbulent times. Leader-organisation fit is a significant contributor to effectiveness, and alignment to values has never been so important.

As the world rapidly evolves, we need to renew our understanding of what leadership means. Business success rests on the methods you adopt to identify, assess and select the best leaders. Having a robust view of and process around talent assessment is critical to guiding your:

  • Talent acquisition
  • Leadership development
  • Succession planning

As expectations of performance and execution increase, leaders must influence their workforces to demonstrate agility for achieving desired outcomes. Your organisation must shift and adapt to respond to the business challenges of the new world and deliver on the company vision.

We help you better understand the skills your organisation currently has
and the skills needed for the future and how to close the gap with a clear
succession plan.
