The second theme I’ll address in the wake of HR Tech is Talent Intelligence. Now, this is a huge topic with many tentacles which, ironically (because it covers skills taxonomies), has struggled with its name. Yes, the space has certainly gained some cohesiveness over the past 5-6 years. It has, however, still been out in front of the business readiness of organizations to realize its full value proposition. That being said, the scarcity of talent in many critical job families is making Talent Intelligence (TI) a truly essential component of any large enterprise's HR Tech stack. TI can make internal processes more efficient and effective (e.g., recruiting, learning) while also creating focused development investments and career opportunities for employees.  These improved processes and insights reduces risk and increases the probability that leader decisions will reap the desired return. How all this is done will be addressed later. For now, a few of the bigger fish in this fast growing pond (it's actually a legitimate lake now!). Lightcast: have been at Labor Market Analytics for 25+ years, long before “talent intelligence” became a category. They are thus mature and know how to plug into existing tech and processes. Eightfold: giving credit where credit is due: they’ve elevated the space with forward-thinking product innovation and use cases. Draup: before most any of these vendors there was Talent Neuron (TN). From TN’s two founders has come Draup, a solution that contains an awe-inspiring amount of global talent data.   Revelio Labs: providing unique insights, analysis, and trends that seem to appearing everywhere in articles, research papers, and presentations. Claro Analytics: Another long-standing player, their achievements were recognized as one of this year’s Product of the Year recipients.   TechWolf: they've taken an innovative approach, one that has been well-received by both the market and investor community (just raised nearly $43M). SkyHive by Cornerstone: Skyhive now helps deliver Cornerstone's market promise of enabling workforce agility at scale.  Plum: Plum captures the skills and desires of individual employees and meshes them with existing and emerging opportunities. Chmura Economics & Analytics: 25 years in talent market analytics and has unique data on military skills and governmental orgs. Other innovative TI vendors: SeekOut Horsefly TalentNeuron Simply Get Results Whether it be with these vendors or others, challenges remain like 1) What are the competitive differentiators? and 2) Who's going to the drive the business readiness and adoption across the numerous processes these solutions impact? Unsurprisingly, I’ll have more to say on these are related questions in upcoming posts, research, and articles. (I didn’t mention Ai at all. Why?) Hope all this helps, and to makin’ great things happen! #talentintelligence #workforceplanning #peopleanalytics #aiinhr #futureofwork #pafow #hrtechconf
