By Adam Avci, Talent Lead, MYOB and Ashleigh Lyas, TA Lead, MYOB

Many organisations are grappling with what role TA plays in Internal Mobility. MYOB decided not to look at Internal Mobility in isolation, but how it intersects and overlaps with Talent Pooling, Talent Advisory and Talent Management and Demand Planning to align with their Strategic Workforce Plan.

Together, Adam and Ash will share:

  1. Why they are expanding their pre-existing Talent Advisory function to broaden impact on the business, and being true Talent Advisors
  2. How the Exec and SLT team were engaged on the concept of mobilising internal talent
  3. How they got Hiring Managers onboard with TA providing career planning to their employees
  4. How they engaged Employees to help them “manage their careers”
  5. The scope and elements of the Career discussions

They will also share the results including:

  1. More empowered and engaged employees
  2. Deeply qualified talent pools with increased internal mobility
  3. Improved Strategic Workforce and Demand Planning
