Our unique culture and strong values make RSM a compelling place for top talent to build their careers. With the changing needs of the workforce and evolving business priorities, our talent focus is also evolving to ensure we continue to provide an unrivaled, inclusive culture and talent experience for all our people.

Integrated talent function enables our people and the success of the firm

We are modernizing how RSM manages and supports talent by transforming our talent organization, processes and technology to empower our people and accelerate how the talent organization meets the evolving needs of the business.

As part of this shift, we integrated RSM’s culture of inclusion team into our talent organization, shifting the operating model from an extracurricular program structure to a business integration model—further embedding inclusion into all areas of the talent experience, from recruitment to feedback to succession planning and everything in between.

Additionally, we created a new talent development and management Center of Excellence, bringing learning, professional development and performance management into one area of focus. This intentional connection ensures development programs are focused on what our professionals need to enhance their performance and grow their careers. By building enterprise capabilities and processes, the new team enables every person to do their best work today and be ready for what’s next.

As a part of our focus on development, we also invested in a coaching practice to maximize both individual and team performance. The coaching framework takes a proactive and organized approach to coaching talented employees, owners and teams so they can accelerate their growth and enhance their performance in ways meaningful to the enterprise.

Digital enabled experiences

This year, we brought together people, process and technology to help deliver a digital enabled talent experience. We implemented new, user-friendly systems and processes to enable our people to find the information they need more effectively with new self-service options.

One example is Talent Compass, our new global human resources (HR) service desk. Talent Compass provides our people with a centralized place to get their personal HR-related questions answered. Through Talent Compass, our people can access on-demand resources and quickly connect live with a member of our talent team, enabling a consistent, streamlined experience.

Additionally, we transitioned to Workday as our integrated human capital management and finance system, replacing various existing systems with one modern application to simplify business processes and enable our teams to be as efficient and effective as possible across the globe.

Supporting nonlinear career paths

We also invested in building a dedicated internal mobility team to aid individuals looking to find new career paths at RSM, helping retain strong and diverse talent. The team has enhanced the mobility experience for the individual changing positions, their leaders and the HR teams through streamlined processes and new tools. Additionally, we are enhancing our global mobility programs and processes to better serve our global clients and better support our people traveling internationally and those working abroad on long-term assignments with RSM International member firms.
