Talent management software helps organisations measure and record information about employee performance and development. It helps employers understand their people better and identify and develop their potential more effectively. The result is informed succession planning, a better chance of identifying valued employees who are about to leave, and great support for HR teams wanting to build a high-performance workplace.
