This short video is from the September 12, 2025 live discussion "Predictive Talent: Anticipating Needs Before They Hit the Business".

This robust discussion underscored a powerful truth: talent development leaders can no longer afford to wait for lagging indicators to reveal problems. To stay ahead, we must anticipate needs, align talent metrics with strategy, and act before gaps derail performance.

As Matt Sernaker shared:
"Shifting from surveys after the fact to shaping daily experiences turned our lowest-rated hotel into the top performer—and gave everyone a role in improvement."

And Angelica Stilling reinforced with her systemic view:
"A focused talent scorecard reveals workforce patterns early—speeding time-to-fill, boosting retention, and giving leaders actionable visibility."

Together, these perspectives highlight a shift in mindset and practice. It’s not just about reporting outcomes—it’s about shaping them. Predictive talent strategies bring business and HR closer together, using early signals to drive accountability, innovation, and measurable results.

When leaders integrate predictive metrics into strategy, they move from reactive firefighting to proactive value creation. And when those metrics are transparent, they don’t just inform decisions—they shape culture, empowering people at every level to own outcomes.

🔑 5 Key Takeaways:
. Lagging tells you what happened; leading tells you what’s next.
. Predictive metrics must align with business strategy to gain traction.
. Sales and DEI examples show how early signals prevent costly gaps.
. Transparency in data creates ownership and cultural buy-in.
. Don’t wait for perfect dashboards—directionally correct data drives action.

✅ 5 Practical Actions:
. Embed predictive metrics into business reviews and strategic planning.
. Review leading indicators more frequently to allow for course correction.
. Define measures with executives upfront to secure alignment.
. Pilot predictive talent metrics in one function, then scale.
. Share results beyond leadership—use ERGs and employee forums to drive culture change.

🔮 Predictive talent isn’t just a measurement shift—it’s a mindset shift. By blending culture, data, and foresight, talent development leaders can deliver results that matter most to the business.
