WHEN SOURCING SERVICE LEADERSHIP TALENT, CONTEXT IS EVERYTHING

Our ability to find the right service leader for your business is based on our deep knowledge and experience in the industry. By assessing your context in explicit areas we are able to be very targeted in our sourcing process. The critical success factors that combine these together are:

Success factor 1:

Understand and describe the context of your business, your service maturity, your organisational structure and your people perspective.

Our service maturity model (Figure 1) illustrates the different maturity levels a service transformation journey may include. From the basic level of focusing on machine functionality to the highest level where you as a service provider perform processes on behalf of your customers. Each level corresponds to a specific set of skills, particularly important to consider as you work towards increasing your service maturity.

Success factor 2:

Accurately translate these requirements into a sourcing profile (job description) and apply them throughout the selection process. Using a structured approach of 4 key focus areas and 18 key service accountabilities allows us to evaluate the chosen parameters and accurately compare with the sourcing profile. The outcome is best possible profile match including a detailed illustration of the differences between candidates for easier selection of final candidate.
