5 Key ConsiderationsWhen Selecting a Talent Management System

in 2015

Big Data Analytics & Mobile

viewed as top priority

in 2015 by CEOs

Cutting edge talent systems are using predictive

analytics and machine learning to deliver personalized

content and performance recommendations so each

person in your organization knows how to work

smarter and succeed.

Studies have shown some of the top companies that

take advantage of data-driven decision making and

machine learning are “on average, 5% more

productive and 6% more profitable than their

competitors.” 1

Your TMS should leverage

machine learning to help you

make smarter decisions

Increase engagement with real-time

feedback. Recognize everyday excellence

through social impressions, leaderboards

and badges. Cultivate learning & sharing.

Allow for remote and networked workers

to easily stay connected through social,

mobile and video capabilities, and

consider cloud-based, flexible solutions to

accommodate changes in your company.

Your TMS should support

the new world of work !

15©2015 Saba Software, Inc.

Your TMS should cultivate a

collaborative work environment

Collaboration tools can help improve teamwork,

engagement and communication so you can

accelerate new hire onboarding, performance

review cycles and other talent management

processes. Make sure your TMS provides

features such as real-time meetings, social

sharing, and mobile access to increase

productivity and user engagement.

16©2015 Saba Software, Inc.

Your TMS should support

seamless integrations !

Ease-of-use is critical not only to user adoption

but also to evaluating the ROI of your TMS. Sure,

most systems will integrate these days, but you

don’t always want to have to involve your

developers to make that happen. Look for a TMS

that allows you to seamlessly manage

integrations in no time, on your own. Connecting

systems such as HRIS, CRM, job boards,

screening services and the latest learning content

should be as easy as drag and drop.

TMS vendor a good fit

with your companyIt’s important to agree on a realistic

timeframe for your TMS implementation.

False expectations can lead to huge

headaches and increased costs. Be

prepared to ask questions that highlight

implementation and support phases, but

also get a feel for culture fit and

methodology. Look for a vendor as a

partner focused on helping you achieve

your business objectives.
