Project Profile

Evaluating Talent Pipeline Management Initiatives and a Peer-Learning Process

U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation (USCCF)
Start Date: Jul 2017 — End Date: Dec 2019

CREC supports the USCCF Talent Pipeline Management (TPM) Academy by helping 40 practitioners from regions across the U.S. to articulate their TPM initiatives and develop measurable program goals and objectives. CREC facilitated two cohorts of 20 practitioners through a process in which they develop action plans and align performance measures with what they expect to achieve from the academy as well as from their TPM initiative. CREC produced an evaluation report on improvements to the clarity of their goals and the progress made in implementing their strategies as a result of the process.
