In this episode, Lucinda talks once more to Mervyn Dinnen, HR and talent rends analyst, author, speaker and renowned tech influencer, about a recent report on internal mobility and how it links to employee engagement.
 Key Takeaways

During the course of the research carried out in 2020, the report concluded that some of the effects of COVID did begin to impact upon internal mobility in a positive way.
Certainly, internal mobility was very much a talent management issue. However, now it is a talent acquisition issue, and could potentially be a major element in talent retention.
Also, business leaders feel that in order to move ahead, there must be a broader mix of skills, perspectives and viewpoints, from people on the outside who can bring in something new.
Indeed, sometimes organisations fail completely to understand the skills required to make a role work. Therefore, they cannot hope to recognise the training required.
