Mercer will provide an exclusive preview of its new Talent Impact™ offerings at the 17th Annual HR Technology® Conference & Exposition, the firm announced today. Talent Impact is Mercer’s talent technology solutions portfolio, helping its 500 client organizations in 25 markets and 16 languages to forecast, engage, mobilize, reward, assess, and develop their most vital asset – their people.

“We are excited to announce our latest Talent Impact release,” said Mercer’s Lisa Sterling, Partner and Global Product Leader of Talent Technology Solutions. “Talent Impact already delivers consulting insights, market information, and advanced technological features to our clients, and the latest enhancements will round out its extensive suite of offerings, making our products more comprehensive, accessible, and user-friendly than ever before.”

The enhancements found in the November 2014 Talent Impact release include:

Enhanced Career Development Tools

Mercer has developed a Career Mapping offering that leverages the firm’s cutting-edge thought leadership in career frameworks and planning. Only about one-third of employers (34%) say they track the career progression of critical talent in their HR systems1, making it difficult for HR managers to guide these individuals toward new strategic roles. Mercer’s Career Mapping offering breaks down the skills and competencies needed to succeed at each level within an organization, empowering employees to chart their own career paths and giving employers the ability to engage, assess, and develop their critical talent.

Dynamic Insights into Workforce Analytics

Senior leaders often find themselves overwhelmed when presented with massive amounts of data and reports. To address this need, Mercer’s workforce analytics have been expanded to include Talent Perspectives, an application providing clients with easy access to their data and analysis – anywhere, anytime. Talent Perspectives enables users to configure data more easily and effectively, thus enhancing the ability to understand, forecast, and act upon critical talent needs and opportunities. Also available as a mobile app for executives on the go, Talent Perspectives delivers the next-generation of workforce analytics dashboards, moving beyond a static “one-size-fits-all” platform toward a dynamic, user-led experience.

Streamlined Rewards Management Experience

Mercer’s rewards management solution, Mercer WIN | ePRISM™, has been enhanced to provide a more consumer-centric and user-friendly experience. The enhancements to ePRISM include a complete redesign of its user interface and the addition of Single Sign-on (SSO) service to seamlessly align it with other Talent Impact offerings. Clients can now evaluate data, develop strategies, and execute compensation programs to meet their organization’s objectives with greater ease and efficiency than ever before.
