July 2nd, 2010 • by Craig Endicott • Posted in Talent Acquisition, Talent Management, Three To SeeNo Comments »

The social space, succession management and the great performance review debate in this week's Three To See.

Andy Headworth shared the infographic below of The Social Media Landscape in 2010 below on his SironSays blog after finding it on CMO.com.

You'll need to zoom in (Ctrl+) to see the details but the colour coding helps to give an at-a-glance overview of 10 of the most well known brands.

The CMO's guide to the social landscape

My second pick appeared on Malaysia Tomorrow and was authored by Sara LaForest and Tony Kubica.  In Succession Planning: How to Meet Future Talent Needs the authors provide 3 reasons "why you need to immediately implement a succession planning strategy":

  1. Replacement for Key Employees
  2. Support Anticipated Growth
  3. Address and Deal with Talent Shortages

My final pick this week is; Ditch Performance Reviews?  How About Learn to do Them Well? Posted to the Harvard Business Review blog by Maxim Sytch and D.Scott DeRue in response to the Wall Street Journal post earlier in the year: Yes, Everyone Really Does Hate Performance Reviews and a number of posts related to it.

The authors cite key "challenges and solutions to the performance review dilemma".

The challenges:

  • Cognitive bias
  • Sugarcoating the negative
  • Lack of preparation.

The solutions:

  1. Create an open, two-way dialogue
  2. Reduce the subjectivity
  3. Give constant feedback
  4. Balance evaluation and development.
