The building shows how the frameworks depend on one another. It is a connected system, so you can start with your most pressing need and follow the links to the areas that influence it.
Start with strategy and planning. Decide the organisation’s priorities, then work out the workforce and HR capability needed to deliver them.
The five pillars work together: attract and retain people, organise work, develop talent, create a healthy culture, and enable and reward performance.
HR services support delivery. Feedback, analytics and thoughtful use of AI help you understand progress and refine the next set of priorities.
Workforce planning identifies the future need. Capability assessment highlights gaps. Leadership development, coaching and succession planning build readiness. Engagement and performance evidence help you see whether the approach is working.
