New Applications for the Agile methodology for the redeployment of talent in the post-Covid reality.

What does redeployment mean? Redeployment is the intra-company reassignment of employees, seeking another position in a company for current employees, thereby avoiding duplication. It is not just another money-saving method, but the brand protection in pandemic times. It will help you to retain key talent and to maintain corporate morale. It is the way to keep productivity, creating a highly-skilled workforce ready to adapt to future challenges. Sooner or later, each business will be faced with the necessity to apply redeployment in its activity. When we speak about the Agile approach, we mean it is an appliance for software development and organizational structures. Still, there is nothing that would not allow you to use the same principles to sourcing the workforce. The first thing you should do is to rid of the old approach that includes reinforcing rigid and siloed legacy structures. Mobility is the motto for your new Agile methodology you will use for the sourcing of the workforce. For this purpose, you should create an internal talent marketplace. You'll be amazed at how broad the capabilities, knowledge, and skills of your staff are. This scheme ideally combines the needs of the company and the capabilities of its employees. Obviously, the usage of the Agile approach for the sourcing of the workforce has its features. For example, you have to understand that there are no traditional vertical career paths. It's better to say that you are hiring the staff for the internal side activities, some kind of the short-term roles falling outside their core competencies. When internal talents can't be found, the situation's answer may be the company's contingent talent network. Another matter, you have to invest time and effort to create a well-functioning, reliable network. But once it's established, you'll simplify the process of sourcing the workforce dramatically.
