Talent Management Consultancy

Building the talent and capability your organisation needs to deliver its strategy.

Talent management is much more than a collection of HR processes. Done well, it connects where your organisation is going with the people, skills, leadership and capability needed to get there.

At Chrysalis Talent Development, we partner with organisations to build a strategic, joined-up approach to talent management. Whether you need to understand where you are today, strengthen a specific area, or build a more comprehensive approach, we help you identify what matters most and turn it into practical action.

What our clients say

"We engaged Verity to run a process from scratch of developing an entire set of Competency and Behavioural Frameworks for our growing organisation. We had developed a great culture and performing well, but we wanted to capture that essence in a way that could support new people to come in, and our existing teams to continue to develop.

 

Verity really listened to our needs, and made sure she invested the time to understand truly what made our company tick. The frameworks she developed were excellent, and really got to the heart of what we wanted. She was patient and was diligent in refining them through the development phases, which meant that when we rolled them out they landed very well indeed.

 

We have been using them for around a year and we can already see a step change in the development conversations being had, and people have really been able to focus consistently on what they really need to do to continue their own growth and development. The project has been a real success and will be used for years to come. I can’t recommend Verity highly enough."

Start with clarity

Before deciding what to change, it helps to understand what is already working, where the gaps are, and where investment will make the greatest difference.

Our proprietary Chrysalis Talent Management Maturity Framework provides a structured way to evaluate the maturity of your current approach against best practice, while taking account of your organisation's strategy, size, priorities and ambitions.

It helps answer three fundamental questions:

 

Where are you headed?

What does your business strategy require from your people?

 

What do you need to get there?

What workforce, skills, leadership and organisational capability will you need, now and in the future?

 

How do you make it happen?

Which talent management practices need to be strengthened, connected or redesigned to turn that ambition into reality?
 

Because maturity isn't about having more processes. And the most sophisticated solution isn't necessarily the right one. It's about having the right approach for your organisation, implemented consistently and delivering the outcomes you need.

From insight to action

An assessment is only valuable if you do something with what you learn.

We work with you to translate insight into clear priorities and practical recommendations, focusing investment where it will have the greatest organisational impact.

That might mean strengthening one particular area, connecting several related capabilities, or developing a broader talent management roadmap. You don't need to transform everything at once, and you certainly don't need to fix what isn't broken.

Depending on your needs, we can support with areas including:

  • Talent management strategy and diagnostic assessment

  • Workforce planning and organisational resourcing

  • Competency and behavioural framework design

  • Leadership capability development

  • Performance management and feedback

  • Learning and organisational capability development

  • Career development and talent optimisation

  • Talent reviews and succession planning

  • Talent assessment and development planning

  • Assessment and development centre design and delivery

  • Talent insight, measurement and evaluation

One challenge or the bigger picture

You don't need a full talent management review to work with us.

Sometimes the challenge is already clear. Perhaps succession planning isn't delivering the talent pipeline you need. Your performance approach has become a process rather than a meaningful conversation. You need to understand future workforce requirements. Or you have invested heavily in development without knowing whether it is building the capability the business actually needs.

We can focus on an individual challenge, explore a number of connected areas, or assess your talent management approach more broadly.

The aim is the same: to make sure your investment in people helps your organisation achieve what comes next.
