Growing talent: from the inside

Growing and retaining the best marketing and communications talent

Increasingly is becoming a high priority for corporations and agencies. The demands for functional excellence and integrated planning and execution are unprecedented. 

From employee engagement to social/digital media and reputation management and crisis communications – the needs of the business demands that organizations invest more time and energy in developing their people. At the same time, these functions and their HR partners already are stressed with daily demands of the business. 

North Star bridges the skills gap many Communications functions face by identifying unique competencies that reflect the maturity of the function. Then we help assess talent, and provide coaching for people leaders in the Communications function to drive clear and actionable professional growth discussions and plans. We’ve delivered these services to companies that include Xerox, Visa, Toyota, Keep America Beautiful and Mercy College, among others.

U Comm: Your Communications/Marketing University

Every organization needs different sets of competencies to drive better business results, and each will place different priorities on various sets of competencies. But at the end of the day, every world-class marketing and/or communications organization will need to articulate the competencies it values, and prioritize how they are introduced and managed among professionals. And they’ll need to identify who needs what training and when.

That’s what makes any communications and marketing university your communications and/or marketing university. North Star takes pride in helping organizations create their own, unique marketing and/or communications universities, and supporting leadership and their teams with everything from change management to assessment and discussion tools. We can deliver customized training for identified competencies that we have in-house, or identify additional trainers who have customized instructional capabilities in other areas.
