Talent In Partnership With Right Management
Gurgaon-based HR and talent management firm Grow Talent Company
Limited has announced a strategic partnership with the one
the world’s leading career transition and organisational
consulting firm, Right Management Consultants Inc of the US,
today. “The relationship will leverage Right’s global
reach and capabilities, and Grow Talant’s proven expertise
in providing superior consulting services to leading businesses
in India,” said Anil Sachdev, Founder and CEO, Grow Talent
Company Ltd.
 Speaking
on the occasion Glenn Heidenreich, Vice President Asia, Right
Management Consultants said that Right has been seeking a
partner in India for some time in order to get direct representation.
This partnership is likely to enhance Grow Talent’s already
strong portfolio of services and add a new line of businesses
by introducing Right’s Career Transition services. Today,
75 per cent of Right’s global revenues come from Career
Transition services
This being a relatively new area Grow Talent will leverage
the expertise and methodology provided by Right. “The
introduction of Career Transition services will benefit employers
who understand that providing these services for departing
and redeployed employees represents sound business practice
and maintains the dignity and well being of the individuals
leaving the organisation. Besides, this will help them elevate
in the eyes of remaining employees and their external audiences,”
said Mr Sachdev.
The idea behind providing these services is to help candidates
identify their strengths which comes through a process of
coaching and visioning and take responsibility for their careers.
However, Mr Sachdev asserted that the Right methodology would
not be adopted in toto. “They would be suitably amended
to go with the local culture. He further said that Career
Transition in the Indian context requires support in areas
of individual visioning, coaching and in certain cases also
industrial relations.
Grow Talent will benefit from yet another area of expertise
that Right possesses— Organisational Consulting services.
This is for employees staying with the organisation. Right’s
expertise in organisatio- nal performance services include talent
management, leadership development and organisational per- formance
services. “The two lines of businesses manage the entire
life cycle of their employees,” said Mr Heidenreich.
While the partnership will help Right get a deeper understanding
of the Indian market, leverage Grow Talent’s management
model and spread its operation to blue chip Indian companies,
Grow Talent will get the advantage of Right’s global
presence and brand, innovative technology and expertise in
the areas of mergers and acquisitions.
Mr Heidenreich also indicated that India operations can serve
as a hub for the firm’s activities in the Asia Pacific
region.
Together, the firms claim, that they can shape the leaders
of tomorrow through their complimentary offerings of assessing
leaders, coaching them, developing leaders and their teams
and leadership development e-solutions.
With India’s blue chip companies like Hindustan Levers,
Larsen & Toubro, Godrej, Hughes Software and Dr Reddy’s
Laboratory Grow Talent is aiming to fetch wider clientele
with this partnership.
Headquartered in Philadelphia, PA, USA, Right has over 300
service locations worldwide and has 3,000 employees in 35
countries. The current partnership is only restricted to sharing
each others tools, methodologies and expertise but Mr. Sachdev
said he is open to Right taking a stake in Grow Talent at
a later stage.
