Actively promoting internal mobility helps keep talent within a
business. It sounds obvious, but surprisingly few companies take
the long-term view.
Whilst it may mean backfilling one role,
keeping talented people within the organisation ultimately saves
time and money. But more importantly, it means knowledge and
experience are not lost. And the simple fact that people know they
can move internally helps keep them engaged.
The key to Internal Mobility is using regular
and creative communications to build an internal marketplace and
putting a clear process behind it – people need to see that
opportunities are available to all, rather than a select few. By
combining both these elements, AMS can help grow internal mobility
and maximise development opportunities.
