Key Talent Indicator: The Most Strategic HR KPI

HR departments play a strategic role in business growth. Do you believe identifying HR KPIs boosts productivity? It is proven that it does; every company should identify their KPIs to meet their objectives. And at Key Talent Indicator, we know this well.

What is KTI?

At Key Talent Indicator, we have identified the need for a new KPI: the KTI. This indicator is essential for efficiency in the area of recruitment, selection, and activating training and hiring plans. You are surely asking yourself, what does this new KPI consist of? How is it measured? KTI (Key Talent Indicator) is an index that ranges from 0 to 100, measuring the suitability of the profile defined by the organization for an employee or candidate. In this way, we obtain the gap in skills that need improvement. In short, with this KPI, we can identify the best candidates for a position with the support of AI. It is based on an objective evaluation of the knowledge, personality, competencies, skills, and aptitudes of each candidate required for the role, through our AI-powered SaaS platform. This is how we obtain the individual KTI of each talent for a specific position and can provide the company with ideal, objective candidates. This indicator is highly strategic for evaluating the effectiveness of hiring processes, but also for detecting skill gaps, or mismatches between skills in internal talent to launch reskilling and upskilling programs. It is even useful for internal promotion processes without the interference of HR bias.

How does Key Talent Indicator help?

We are an essential indicator for HR departments, complementing the achievement of other objectives based on:

  • Average time to hire.

  • Cost per hire.

  • Staff turnover. Retention rate.

  • Employee absenteeism.

  • Labor productivity.

We have numerous clients who already trust KTI as a strategic indicator. Some clients identify this indicator as essential for their business for the following reasons:

  1. It is precise. Thanks to the process of characterizing skills and knowledge for the position or project, it measures suitability against the set goal.

  2. It is objective and bias-free. There are no preferences or references involved.

  3. It is efficient and agile. It reduces hiring time and other services the company might require.

  4. It is a strategic index. It provides a result based on an evaluation.

Do you want to implement your KPI and meet your strategic goals? Request a meeting with us and we will see how we can help you.

    Sales teams often account for a significant portion of personnel turnover in many companies. Sometimes, the causes lie in pressure for results or poorly designed goal-setting systems.

Evaluating your team's sales skills helps identify what's failing, which profiles have the most potential, and which competencies should be reinforced to increase stability in your sales department.
