The SETA’s have made it possible and easier for all organisations, including smaller ones to access high quality development programmes that get offered through accredited training companies. Phelekeza seeks to offer a holistic approach to Talent development, instead of the ‘one-size-fits-all” approach that HR Practitioners are sometimes conditioned to apply. In as much as the technical competencies are vital to the running of the corporates, awareness needs to be raised for these organisations to include the development of soft skills at all levels of employment. Unfortunately, the focus is sometimes placed solely on EE targets, disregarding the candidates’ holistic competence. Both the employer and the employee need to know that any of them is free to raise a red flag should a need to develop their capacity present itself. Part of Phelekeza’s function is to raise this awareness but also to educate organisations on the importance of Talent Development. Using our various assessments, surveys, analyses and organisational tools, my team and I are equipped to enable HR Professionals to improve their understanding of human capital. In refining our talent development solutions, we will soon be implementing new ways of closing the Talent Development gaps at our current clients. In partnership with her company Quintessential Growth Consultant, Jennifer Quinn and I are excited to share these new plans as we step into 2022. Let us continue in unison in capacitating our HUMAN Capital.
