“Employees are getting used to the idea of taking their career in their own hands. In order to facilitate this, organizations need to offer a process, tooling and coaching to their employees. Jan and his team have successfully assisted Alcatel-Lucent Belgium in putting a career project on the rails to deliver exactly this process, tooling and coaching. Feedback from employee side, management side and HR side is extremely positive thanks to the professional and practical implementation material and guidelines.”

Marc De Boom

HR Director for the Benelux and Nordics Alcatel-Lucent



“Jan acted as a strategic sounding board while we created a talent management framework. His broad expertise – based on both academic models and practical experience – along with his flexible and empathic approach provided lots of added value and support in the development of a clear and coherent vision for talent management at Securex. In this vision, we made thorough use of “capability thinking” in order to counterbalance traditional "gap" thinking (developed from competency management). Jan's knowledge of the "capability approach" contributed to our in-depth and innovative reflection on detecting and managing talent at Securex."

Jan De Visch brilliantly takes what is essentially an “integral” perspective. He critiques current and widely accepted approaches to talent management that exist within firms as an isolated discipline, separate and distinct, from other organizational systems. In essence, he advocates an integrated approach that clearly aligns business strategy, organizational structure, and the development and leverage of human and knowledge capital.
