Hi,
Congratulations on your new role as an advisor for Learning and Development (L&D) and Talent Management in a financial institution! Transitioning from a HR generalist role in a telecoms company to a specialized role in a different industry can be both exciting and challenging.

In terms of AOC (Area of Concern), it's important to first understand the specific goals and objectives of your new role within the financial institution. Are there any specific challenges or areas of improvement that the institution is currently facing in terms of L&D and talent management? Identifying these areas of concern will be crucial in developing a strategic plan to address them effectively.

Additionally, it would be beneficial to conduct a thorough analysis of the current L&D and talent management practices within the financial institution. This could involve reviewing existing training programs, talent acquisition and retention strategies, performance management processes, and employee development initiatives. By gaining a comprehensive understanding of the current state of affairs, you'll be better equipped to identify areas for improvement and develop targeted solutions.

Furthermore, building strong relationships with key stakeholders within the financial institution will be essential in your new role. This includes collaborating with department heads, managers, and employees to understand their needs and challenges, as well as gaining their support for any proposed changes or initiatives.

Lastly, staying updated on industry best practices, trends, and innovations in L&D and talent management will be crucial for success in your new role. This could involve attending relevant conferences, networking with professionals in the field, and continuously seeking opportunities for professional development.

Overall, your transition to this new role presents a valuable opportunity to make a significant impact in the financial institution's L&D and talent management functions. By proactively addressing areas of concern, leveraging your expertise, and staying current with industry trends, you'll be well-positioned to drive positive change and contribute to the institution's overall success.
Best of luck in your new role!

Thanks

Dear member,

Your query is a little baffling. You have been selected to join a financial institution as an advisor, L&D and Talent Management. In that case, while recruiting the interviewers must have asked questions related to these fields. Additionally, they must have disclosed the Job Descriptions (JDs) for the position. Then rather than coming to the public forum and asking the AOC, why not refer to the JDs?

Moreover, after joining the company you may ask your reporting authority what he/she expects from you. Your immediate task after joining a new company is to gain the confidence of your boss. Against this backdrop, you need to fulfil his/her expectations rather than implementing your agenda.

Therefore, after joining have a private discussion with the reporting authority and find out what tasks he/she expects to be completed in 30, 60, 90, 180 and 360 days. If you feel you need support in the execution of a few tasks, then specify clearly what kind of support is expected and from whom. Furthermore, if some task is too tough for you, then explain clearly and either defer it for the future or ask for deletion.

What I have written above is not to discourage you. Your query is valid but you have raised it too early. I wish you waited for a year or so, stabilised in the new job, understood the psychology of your boss, understood the culture of the company and then raised a query on the public forum.

Thanks and I wish you successful on-boarding in the new company.

Optimized Training Programs: Develop and implement customized training programs that align with the specific needs of the financial industry. Incorporate a mix of technical skills, soft skills, and industry-specific knowledge to enhance the capabilities of employees. Ensure that training is engaging, practical, and aligned with organizational goals.

Continuous Improvement: Establish a culture of continuous learning and improvement. Encourage feedback, monitor the effectiveness of training programs, and adjust strategies accordingly. Stay updated on industry trends, regulatory changes, and emerging technologies to ensure that talent management practices remain relevant and effective.

By focusing on these areas, you can contribute significantly to the growth and development of the organization's workforce, ultimately enhancing its overall performance and competitiveness in the financial sector. Good luck in your new role!
