Bring the same level of rigor to
human capital planning as you do to business planning
Are you measuring the impact of
your talent decisions relative to
business objectives and results?
Do you measure in single
dimension or focus on the few
critical linkage points?
Do you measure success through
traditional metrics or the desired
business outcome?
Getting the numbers right is just the beginning. The “magic” happens when
measures and analysis are combined with the logic of knowing where to look for
the important connections and the savvy of knowing when a story is better than
a number (for example, framing a talent problem using the metaphor of a supply
chain would likely motivate managers to think about it more critically)
Ensure common frameworks and mental models for analyzing issues and
defining success

The evolution of segmentation:
Granularity and sophistication have greatly evolved, allowing us to
address key questions such as:
What employee behaviors does the business model require, and how
can we effectively elicit those behaviors from different segments?
Where does exceptional talent really make a difference versus where
does good enough suffice?
What behaviors do we need to change (e.g., healthier lifestyles,
increased retirement savings) to improve program effectiveness and
ROI?
Organization:
Key drivers and performance expectations
Pivotal versus proficiency rolesPotential
Life stages
Attitudinal

Job roles
Rank and File

Executives Employee:
Preferences, values, behaviors
Lifestyles and life choices
Limited Traditional Microsegmentation: Two perspectivesEmerging
22. towerswatson.com © 2013 Towers Watson. All rights reserved. 21
Microsegmentation enables us to identify
the organization requirements for talent in various roles
Example: Airline Industry
Pivotal role analysis, a key element of segmentation, helps
organizations determine how talent in different roles contributes to
business value and where having “great” talent versus “good” talent can
make a difference
Employee Performance
Customer
Loyalty
Airline Pilots
Having more higher
performing airline pilots
will not yield additional
business value (defined
as customer loyalty) to
the organization
Flight Attendants
Employee Performance
Customer
Loyalty
Because airlines maintain
competitive advantage by
differentiating the customer
experience, flight attendants
are a pivotal employee
segment. Higher levels of
performance yield significantly
greater customer loyalty

infrastructure
How do we tap into a unique ecosystem that ensures an optimal
supply at the right cost
