Madison, Wis. (September 7, 2011) – Excelling in talent management increases a credit union’s stability, competitive advantage, and operational efficiency, resulting in significant organization-wide savings in time and money.

Tools, Techniques, and Technology Improve Credit Union Talent Management is based on information gathered from human resource managers, trainers, and vendors to the credit union industry.

The white paper discusses measures that credit unions can take to improve their practices throughout the talent management life cycle, including:

• Improving the bridge between hiring and training, known as “onboarding”;
• Augmenting training with Tracked Autonomy methodology;
• Making lifelong learning part of the culture;
• Harmonizing compensation programs to facilitate career pathing; and
• Adopting software solutions that tightly integrate all the components of acquisition, training, management, promotion, and knowledge transfer in one interface.

White recognizes that, thanks in part to employees’ support of the credit union self-help consumer movement, credit unions generally benefit from a stable and motivated workforce. Human resource managers who deploy best practices will find themselves prepared to leverage these existing advantages in talent management for top performance at all.
