First, do no harm. For physicians, clinicians and researchers to uphold this fundamental principle of patient care, they need to work in an organization that engages them and supports their growth.

When health systems and life sciences companies have the right organizational design and structures supported by optimal talent management processes, workers are more likely to thrive. In turn, efficiency, productivity and value rise for the organization — and so do patient outcomes. But it’s not always easy to maintain focus on doing the right thing for your people given the complexity of the work you do, the competitiveness of an evolving market and extreme regulatory pressures.

That’s why organizations like yours work with our healthcare and life sciences consultants. Our team can help you recruit talent and future leaders, create innovative organizational structures and build more inclusive processes. In short, we help you get back to doing what you do best: following through on your purpose to deliver a healthier tomorrow.

“Faster, better, cheaper.” Today, it takes more than this age-old mantra to move industrial organizations forward.

In the Fourth Industrial Revolution, constant, disruptive change is the new normal. To survive, industrial organizations must become more digitally sustainable — they have to build the competencies essential to support transformation.

While industrial organizations excel at leveraging technology to build capacity and increase productivity, they also need to focus on the human element. They need leaders and talent with the right skills and mindsets to build an agile, adaptable culture that supports innovation and enables the business to respond to market demands.

Change is always easier said than done. Rethinking years of processes and methodologies takes time and courage. That’s where we come in.

Each year, our industrial consulting team leads more than 13,000 engagements across our industrial lines of business. We work with leaders of a variety of functions, such as operations, manufacturing, supply chain, marketing and sales, to help them develop the talent and strategies they need to drive growth.

Sport is about winning, not just taking part. And we know that one of the biggest factors in fueling sporting wins is the power of tremendous leadership.

The talent at the top can make or break a sports organization. With the changing demands of ownership, leagues, partners, athletes, fans and communities, the public perception of what it takes to win is driven by leaders that bring alignment, strategy, culture and adaptability that produces success.

As the largest sports executive search and advisory practice of its kind, the Korn Ferry Sports practice has a global footprint and elite relationships inside and across sports, media, technology and entertainment. We find the right talent to lead organizations into the future.

The future is here—but that future also changes daily, given the convergence of media, data, connectivity, and mobility. Technology transformation is driving productivity and accelerating globalization in turn, revolutionizing every aspect of business. No sooner does one technology get a foothold than it’s replaced by the next. Technology companies are at the forefront of these changes—and are often expected to lead them. Navigating challenges requires technology firms to have the talent that’s ready for today and prepare for tomorrow.

Gone are the days when the public sector, government and nonprofits could simply go through the motions and achieve their mission.

Today, to keep pace with rapidly changing social needs, government offices and public sector agencies must do more than serve the needs their constituents have today. They must think ahead to what’s next.

To harness their power to address pressing global issues, these organizations need the right talent, technology and processes. With these pieces in place, they’ll be ready to change how people live their lives for the better.

We offer a range of solutions that address the talent and organizational strategy needs within the association, education, family office, government and nonprofit sectors. From business transformation to talent acquisition, development and engagement, we’ll help your agency shed the traditional, bureaucratic hierarchies that are holding you back. Our government and public sector consultants will show you how to embrace change, unlock the full potential of your talent and deliver on your organization’s mission and vision.

Change is a constant for all organizations these days, which means you’re likely implementing change management strategies. But if your change processes don’t take stock of what your people need and put people at the center of your organizational transformation, all of your efforts may be for naught.

Change isn’t linear or static. That means organizations must embrace continual transformation. They must remain agile, resilient and flexible so they can anticipate future change and pivot as necessary to remain relevant.

But change isn’t just a matter of transforming processes and technology. To achieve change, organizations must strive to build a people-centric organization.

Total rewards are much more than base salary and incentives. They include everything of value that the organization provides its employees, and is an integral part of your business and people strategy.

The best designed total rewards program attracts, motivates and keeps the right talent—from entry level to the C-suite. It shapes your culture and your reputation. And it balances the needs of the business with what people actually want.

It sounds straightforward—but business environments are shifting. Economies are volatile. What people need and want from their work is changing. Career paths are more dynamic than ever and new jobs and roles are constantly emerging.

We have the compensation and benefits data to make sure you’re always paying fair—no matter the job, industry or location. More than that, we have comprehensive rewards benchmarking backed by expertise, so you’re not wasting your resource budget on the wrong rewards. Instead, you’ll offer people total rewards (financial and non-financial) that engage and motivate them to go above and beyond—better for both them and for your business.

To capitalize on business opportunities, you need to know what your current talent is capable of and what talent you should seek across all levels of the organization, including the talent market in which you compete.

Our assessment and succession solutions give you an objective, actionable picture of the talent you need, the talent you have and how to close the gap. Your business strategy is only possible if you have the enterprise talent to deliver today and into the future.

From fierce competition for new candidates to market changes and new technology and data, it’s hard to know what the future workforce holds. To achieve your goals, you need to figure out the best way to respond to these challenges and how to attract the people you need to propel your business, both now and in the future.

But which path is the right one? How can you build a flexible, intelligent talent acquisition strategy? One that adapts to changing circumstances? One that offers a compelling career journey for every person? One that delivers immediate and long-term impact throughout your organization?

You can’t predict what tomorrow holds for your organization. But with the right leadership and professional development, you can be prepared for anything.

Leadership and professional development unlocks value at all levels. For the individual, this means honing their skills, learning new tools, and growing as a professional, whether that means focusing on leadership or broadening and deepening capabilities in their career.

As individuals develop, organizations flourish. Engagement, alignment and effectiveness are unlocked. Shareholder value increases and great talent remains.

Transformative leadership and professional development begins with learning—from one to many, high tech to high touch.

We help you understand what success looks like in your leaders and professionals. What will enable agility and change at every level in your organization. We tie assessment, development, and coaching together based on the learner’s goals and your organizational goals. From custom programs to scalable digital solutions, we deliver personalized development journeys for all your people, wherever they are.

In a world where disruption and market turbulence change the work we do and how work gets done, the ability to understand, measure and align work with talent has never been more critical. Organizations need to keep pace in a constantly changing world with a robust and flexible career job architecture—supported by innovative technology to accelerate and inform job design, job leveling and talent mobility through roles.

Korn Ferry Architect streamlines job design, work measurement, and related talent processes. It enables you to design, evaluate and change jobs quickly and efficiently and gives you a comprehensive view of where jobs sit in your organization.

This is Korn Ferry Assess, helping you predict whether your organization’s workforce is capable of delivering on its future strategy. Talent assessments illustrate an individual’s current capability and future potential. It measures the skill sets and mindsets of your entire workforce, from CEO to junior recruits, using just one assessment questionnaire.

Our assessments use Success Profiles to help you determine “what good looks like” in terms of the skills, behaviors and mindsets individuals need to have for any given role. This in turn helps you understand your Potential Gap–which, in talent terms, is the difference between the talent you have, and the talent you need to deliver your future strategy.

By understanding this gap, you’ll be able to create the optimal blueprint for developing talent at the individual, leadership and organizational level. You’ll also discover how to best upskill, reskill and recruit talent at scale to build a workforce for tomorrow and today.
