TALENT MANAGEMENT AT NORTH SHORE-LONG ISLAND JEWISH HEALTH SYSTEM
This vignette highlights how North-Shore Long Island Jewish Health System (NS-LI) uses a computerized talent management system. This system helps NS-LI in its recruiting efforts, by gathering information on the organization’s HR goals, recruiting efforts, employee performance reviews, and more. Using data from the system, NS-LI is making better hiring decisions that match applicants to jobs, so turnover has fallen.
Question: According to the information presented in this case, what are the advantages of using a computerized talent management system, particularly in a tight labor market? provide main bullet points only
“The Systematic Approach to Training (SAT) is a methodology for managing training programs. It is an orderly; logical approach to determining what people must know and do at a particular job or in a specific profession” (Dhawan, 2018, p.1). This approach is focusing on core objectives and “end in mind” to ensure that employees can master the main takeaways upon completion of the training in order to function properly.
Pros to systematic training:
“Organized Approach
Clarity and Responsibility
Recognizing the Student’s Abilities
Hands-On Design” (Katchi, 2015, para.8).
Some of the cons of systematic approaches are lack of adaptability, flexibility within the process, being able to change the structure on a moment’s notice or exercise innovative approaches to training.
Please provide examples of systematic or any other training methods that are currently in place within your organization and analyze its pros and cons.

Broad banding allows for more flexibility within ranges, allows more movement of employees within the ranges, and can reduce the need for promotions. The use of broad-banding has declined in recent years because each band consists of a broad range of jobs and the market value of these jobs may vary considerably. Unless carefully monitored, employees in jobs at the lower end of the band could progress to the top of the range and become overpaid. The challenging question here is What does effect the relationship between “Job Worth” and “Average Hourly Pay” based on the Pay Grades and Range?
