The 6-Month Talent Roadmap Every HR Leader Needs

In this episode of the HR Leaders Podcast, we sit down with Kristin Trecker, Chief People Officer at Visteon Corporation, to unpack what it really takes to build talent at the speed of disruption in a 100-year industry going through a 100-year change.Kristin explains why HR has to stop acting like an order taker and start operating like a product line manager, with a clear roadmap, clear customers, and a clear point of view. She shares how Visteon runs a six month product roadmap and pairs it with a capability and capacity plan, so talent decisions keep pace with the business.Most importantly, she breaks down the cultural shift behind it all, from calibrating performance around impact, to out-rewarding star performers, to rewriting HR’s role entirely, replacing “business partner” with performance coach, and building a team that can debate, challenge, and drive change without politics.🎓 In this episode, Kristin discusses:Why HR’s job is to improve the business through talent, not “support” itHow Visteon runs a six month product roadmap with a parallel talent capability planThe culture shift from performance to impact, and why calibration takes years to get rightHow to redesign roles using a 2 by 2 by 1 matrix (two outcomes, two metrics, one change)Why “business partner” is out, and HR must become performance coaches who drive real outcomes🙏‍ Thanks you to our series partner - atlas copilotMeet the AI-native adaptive learning platform that builds the course, teaches the skill, and proves the impact, while work is happening, not weeks later → https://www.atlascopilot.com/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
