CHESS AND UNDERSTANDING HUMAN RESOURCES& TALENT MANAGEMENT
There are similarities between the Game of
Chess & Talent Management and hence an understanding
of Chess helps in evolving ,nurturing, growing
and fine tuning a good Talent management strategy
1)In the game of Chess,
each soldiers has a designated space, path etc while each Talent has designated
location, Responsibility & KRA
2)The objective in Chess is to protect your King ,Check-Mate your opponent King, in Talent Management you try to Retain your Star Performer&at the same time Check-Mate your competition by getting their Star Performers
3)As in the Case of Chess where you have a "SUPER STAR" in your QUEEN,which is the King Pin of your strategies in the Game of Chess, Your "SUPER STAR" performer is the focus of most of your Strategies in Business
4)Just as in the game of CHESS, You are still a loser if you exceeded your
Time-Limit(Even if you have a distinctly better position),Your Talent is good
only to the extent of their Proper Time Management,as best of decisions not
taken by them in time, results in your losing the battle.
5)As in the Game of Chess, it is very important to be "GOOD IN YOUR END-GAME'(even after the Queens are of the board),in the game of business it is very important to have a good back-up team, when your SUPER STAR is not available for you. Otherwise as in the game of Chess,if your opponent knows your dependence on heavy pieces will deliberately try to swap the heavy pieces,Your competition knowing your Weakness of depending on your Star performer, will try to snatch him away at any cost.
