This disclosure relates to a talent development information processing apparatus, a talent development information processing method, and a talent development information processing program.
Systems that support the sales activities of corporations have been conventionally known. For example, Japanese Laid-Open Patent Publication No. 2010-271809 discloses a system that evaluates the number of times a phrase is used in response contents of a salesperson and the contract rate, and uses this information in sales skill improvement training.
However, the skills required in business activities including sales, are not limited to the response contents but include a variety of activities such as identifying needs, and making proposals to customers, for example. In addition, if the relationship between the various skills possessed by the person in charge of business and the business performances is unclear, the process by which the person in charge of business creates the business performances becomes unclear, and it may fail to be possible to suggest appropriate talent development measures for the person in charge of business.

Hereinafter, with reference to the drawings, a talent development information processing apparatus, a talent development information processing method, and a talent development information processing program according to one example will be described in detail.
First, with reference to
In
The talent development information processing apparatus 1 includes functional units, i.e., a first storage unit 11, a second storage unit 12, a setting screen providing unit 13, an assignment information generation unit 14, a list generation unit 15, a computation unit 16, a change information generation unit 17, and a suggestion information providing unit 18. Each of the functional units of the talent development information processing apparatus 1 above in this example is described as a functional module comprising the talent development information processing program (software) in this example.
The first storage unit 11 stores information on a person in charge of business, a plurality of pieces of performance information, and a plurality of pieces of talent development information for each person in charge of business.
The information on the person in charge of business is directed to the information on the person that is in charge of business. The information on the person in charge of business may include, for example, the name of the person in charge of business, ID (e.g., a number to identify the person in charge of business), icon (e.g., a graphic or image to identify the person in charge of business), name of the superior, industry of which the person is in charge, date of entering the company, year of entering the company, quadrant to which the person is currently mapped (see below), or educational background. The icon may be displayed in the assignment information described below.
The performance information is directed to information that indicates the business performances achieved by the person in charge of business. The first storage unit 11 may store detailed performance information that represents the details of the business performances as the performance information. The detailed business performance information may include, for example, information on business performances in various industries such as business performances in sales positions, research performances in research positions, development performances in development positions, teaching performances in teaching positions, or military performances in military positions. In this example, when the performance information is directed to business performances is illustrated. For example, the information that indicates detailed performance information in the business performances may include, for example, the business achievement rate, which indicates the achievement rate against the sales targets; the annual amount of created business negotiations, which indicates the amount of business negotiations created throughout the year; the annual number of created business negotiations, which indicates the number of business negotiations created throughout the year; the average amount of created business negotiations, which indicates the average amount of business negotiations created throughout the year; the average number of days of business negotiations, which indicates the number of days required for business negotiations; or the order receipt rate, which indicates the percentage of business negotiations in which the orders have been received. Each person in charge of business may achieve plural tasks. The first storage unit 11 stores multiple pieces of performance information.
The talent development information is directed to information that indicates the talent development status of the person in charge of business. The first storage unit 11 may store the detailed talent development information that indicates the details of the talent development status as the talent development information. The first storage unit 11 stores at least one of skill information and training information as the talent development information.
The skill information is directed to information that indicates the acquisition status of the business skills required to achieve the business. The skill information in the detailed talent development information may include information on, for example, the overall skill evaluation in which the overall skill is evaluated by a numerical value or rank; the account skill evaluation in which the ability to formulate an account plan that summarizes the basic concept of sales for each customer; the hypothesis formulation skill evaluation in which the ability to formulate hypotheses in sales is evaluated; or the business plan proceeding evaluation in which the ability to proceed the business plan is evaluated.
The training information is directed to information that indicates the implementation status of training to improve the business skills. The training information in the detailed talent development information may include, for example, the ratio of completion of training, which indicates the percentage of completed training among multiple training sessions; or the completion flag, which indicates that each training session has been completed. The training information may be directed to, for example, information indicating the implementation status for training suggested (recommended) by the talent development information processing apparatus 1. Alternatively, the training information may be directed to information that indicates the implementation status for all training (including training that is not suggested).
Each person in charge of business may acquire multiple skills or complete multiple training. The first storage unit 11 may store multiple pieces of skill information or training information.
The setting screen providing unit 13 provides the user with a setting screen for selecting one piece of performance information among multiple pieces of performance information and one piece of talent development information among multiple pieces of talent development information. The setting screen providing unit 13 may provide a setting screen allowing the user to select the detailed performance information and detailed talent development information. The assignment information generation unit 14 generates assignment information that assigns the information on person in charge of business stored in the first storage unit 11 to corresponding quadrant in the matrix, which is configured by four quadrants classified based on the performance information and talent development information set on the setting screen provided by the setting screen providing unit 13.
A matrix is a set of regions in which a plane is divided into multiple regions. Each region in the matrix is referred to as a quadrant. In this example, the matrix has four quadrants generated when the performance information and talent development information are set as two coordinate axes perpendicular to each other. Each of the four quadrants is a region characterized by the performance information and talent development information. The setting screen providing unit 13 provides the user with a setting screen for selecting the coordinate axes of the matrix. As mentioned above, the first storage unit may store a plurality of pieces of the performance information. Also, the first storage unit may store multiple pieces of skill information or training information. The setting screen allows the user to select one piece of the performance information among multiple pieces of the performance information as one coordinate axis (e.g., y-axis). The setting screen allows the user to select one piece of information among the multiple pieces of skill information or training information as the other coordinate axis (e.g., x-axis).
The assignment information generation unit 14 generates assignment information that assigns the information on persons in charge of business to the corresponding quadrants in the matrix with the performance information and talent development information set on the setting screen as the respective coordinate axes. Assigning the information on the person in charge of business corresponds to mapping the information on each person in charge of business to the corresponding quadrant of the matrix. The assignment information visualizes (render visible) to which quadrant each person in charge of business has been mapped and in which portion of the mapped quadrant each person in charge of business is located. Even within the same quadrant, the mapping positions in the matrix differ from each other depending on the numerical values of the performance information and talent development information. The assignment information generation unit 14 may represent the difference between the performance information and talent development information of one person in charge of business and those information of another person in charge of business according to the mapping positions of the persons. For example, the assignment information generation unit 14 is capable of representing whether the performance information and talent development information of one person in charge of business is similar to those of the other person in charge of business according to the difference in the mapping positions of the two persons in charge of business in the matrix.
The assignment information generation unit 14 generates the assignment information to facilitate a user to check to which quadrant each person in charge of business has been mapped. In addition, the setting screen providing unit 13 provides the user with the setting screen to facilitate the user to check the assignment information in the performance information and talent development information optionally selected by the user.
The assignment information is generated based on the talent development status of “Enabled” in the skill information and training information, and suggests talent development measures. Accordingly, the assignment information may be referred to as enablement dashboard based on providing the user with the information based on the Enablement.
The second storage unit 12 stores the suggestion information on the talent development measures assigned to the quadrants of the matrix. The suggestion information is directed to information that suggests measures for training a person in charge of business. The suggestion information may include, for example, information on training, coaching, assigned tasks, assigned industries, or sales tools, that are recommended to the person in charge of business.
The information on training is directed to training to train a person in charge of business and may include, for example, the type of training, the duration of the training, the cost of the training, and the location of the training. The information on coaching may include, for example, the type of coaching (e.g., self-development, psychological, or philosophical), the school of coaching (e.g., name of coaching organization, method, and others), and the name of the coach.
The information on the assigned tasks may include, for example, information on sales, accounting, legal, general affairs, research, or development. The information on the assigned tasks may include, for example, information on the specific organizations, superiors or colleagues.
The information on the assigned industries may include, for example, agriculture, forestry, fisheries, mining, construction, manufacturing, communications, services, or advertising. The information on the assigned industries may include, for example, the specific company name, workplace, and working form (e.g., full-time or part-time).
The information on sales tools may include information on tools that support or assist the tasks of the person in charge of business such as management tools that manage customer information (e.g., business card information, and address book information), document creation tools that create presentation materials, and schedulers that manage their own schedules. The information on sales tools may also include electronic media including videos explaining sales know-how, and information on novelty goods to be distributed to customers, for example.
The suggestion information providing unit 18 provides the user with suggestion information for the person in charge of business included in the assignment information generated by the assignment information generation unit 14 based on the suggestion information stored in the second storage unit 12.
The suggestion information providing unit 18 may, for example, provide the user with the suggestion information that is assigned to the corresponding quadrant in the matrix on a one-to-one basis. In addition, the suggestion information providing unit 18 may select one or more pieces of the suggestion information from a plurality of pieces of suggestion information stored in the second storage unit 12 based on the information of other persons in charge of business that have achieved high business performances. For example, the suggestion information providing unit 18 may provide the user with the suggestion information by referring to the suggestion information that has been provided in the past for the information on other persons in charge of business, that have information (e.g., business in charge, and year of joining the company) similar to that of the person in charge of business.
In addition, the suggestion Information providing unit 18 may use artificial intelligence (AI) to select one or more pieces of the suggestion information from a plurality of pieces of the suggestion information stored in the second storage unit 12 and provide it to the user. The talent development information processing apparatus 1 in this example may update and store the performance information of the person in charge of business as appropriate. For example, the results of the computation of the correlation computed by the computation unit 16 described below may be accumulated every time the performance information is updated. For example, the suggestion information providing unit 18 may operate the AI to select the suggestion information provided to each person in charge of business, and the suggestion information with high correlation using the subsequent performance information and the correlation information as learning data to provide the user with the suggestion information.
Providing the suggestion information is directed to, for example, generating a web site that contains suggestion information and displaying the generated web site to the web browser 21 of the user terminal 2. The suggestion information may be provided by sending an email including the suggestion information to the user terminal 2. The suggestion information providing unit 18 may provide the suggestion information for a single person in charge of business, or the suggestion information for multiple persons in charge of business. For example, if the user is the superior of several persons in charge of business, the suggestion information providing unit 18 may provide the suggestion information for the subordinates of the user.
The list generation unit 15 generates a list of persons in charge of business classified in the same quadrant in the matrix based on the assignment information generated by the assignment information generation unit 14. The suggestion information providing unit 18 provides the suggestion information to the person in charge of business included in the list generated by the list generation unit 15 based on the suggestion information stored in the second storage unit 12. For example, a list of the persons in charge of business displays the name of each person in charge of business and the performance information and talent development information of the person in charge of business in a list format. The list of persons in charge of business classified in the same quadrant in the matrix is generated to allow a user to check which person in charge of business has similar performance information and talent development information.
The computation unit 16 computes the correlation between the business performances and talent development status based on the performance information and talent development information stored in the first storage unit 11. The suggestion information providing unit 18 further provides the user with the correlation information on the correlation computed by the computation unit 16.
As mentioned above, since the talent development measures include a significant number of measures, it may be difficult to determine which measures will contribute to the achievement of the business performances. The computation unit 16 is capable of computing the correlation between the business performances and the talent development status (e.g., correlation coefficient, or presence or absence of significant difference), facilitating the user to determine which measures will contribute to achieving the business performances. In this example, the persons in charge of business are mapped in the assignment information, for example, allowing the computation unit 16 to compute the correlation between the business performances and the talent development status of the persons in charge of business mapped to the same quadrant in the matrix.
The change information generation unit 17 generates change information that indicates changes in the assignment information of each person in charge of business over time based on the assignment information generated by the assignment information generation unit 14. The suggestion information providing unit 18 provides suggestion information based further on the change information of other persons in charge of business generated by the change information generation unit 17.
The assignment information indicates the current mapping position based on the performance information and talent development information of the person in charge of business. The position of the mapping in the assignment information changes over time depending on the subsequent talent development measures taken by the person in charge of business and other factors. The information on changes in the assignment information is generated, for example, as the amount of change in the numerical values of the performance information and talent development information, the amount of change in the coordinates on the mapped matrix, or the locus of the coordinates on the matrix. The change information generation unit 17 generates the change information generated on a monthly or annual basis, for example, allowing the suggestion information providing unit 18 to search for other persons in charge of business (e.g., senior persons in charge) that have similar change information and provide suggestion information referring to the talent development measures implemented by the other persons in charge of business.
The functional units of the talent development information processing apparatus 1 described above merely illustrate examples of the functional units of the talent development information processing apparatus 1, and do not limit the functions that the talent development information processing apparatus 1 has. For example, the talent development information processing apparatus 1 need not have all of the above functional units, but may have some of them. The talent development information processing apparatus 1 may also have functions other than those described above. For example, the talent development information processing apparatus 1 may have an input function to input information and an output function to report the operating status of the apparatus by LED lamps or other means.
The functional units of the talent development information processing apparatus 1 are described above as comprising software. However, at least one or more of the above functional units of the talent development information processing apparatus 1 may be comprised by hardware.
Any of the above functional units of the talent development information processing apparatus 1 may be implemented by dividing one functional unit into multiple functional units. In addition, any two or more of the above functional units of the talent development information processing apparatus 1 may be integrated into a single functional unit for implementation.

The talent development information processing program is acquired, for example, from a recording medium that stores the program or from a program distribution server via a network, installed in the ROM 3, and read out and executed by the CPU 101.
The I/O device 104 has an operation input function and a display function (operation display function). The I/O device 104 is, for example, a touch panel. The touch panel enables the user of the talent development information processing apparatus 1 to enter the operations using her/his fingertip or touch pen. As the I/O device 104 in this example, a touch panel with an operation display function is used is described. However, the I/O device 104 may have a display device having a display function and an operation input device having an operation input function separate from each other. In this example, the display screen of the touch panel may be implemented as the display screen of the display device, and the operation of the touch panel as the operation of the operation input device. The I/O device 104 may be embodied in various forms such as head-mounted, glasses, and wristwatch displays, for example.
The communication I/F 105 is directed to an OF for communication. The communication I/F 105 performs near field communication such as wireless LAN, wired LAN, and infrared, for example. Although

After executing the process in step S11, the talent development information processing apparatus 1 determines whether the settings on the setting screen have been completed (step S12). Whether the settings on the setting screen have been completed may be determined, for example, based on whether the user has performed the completion operation on the web site. If it is determined that the settings on the setting screen have not been completed (step S12: NO), the talent development information processing apparatus 1 repeats the process in step S12, and waits for the settings on the setting screen to be completed.
In contrast, if it is determined that the settings on the setting screen have been completed (step S12: YES), the talent development information processing apparatus 1 generates the assignment information (step S13). The assignment information generation unit 14 is capable of generating the assignment information.
After executing the process in step S13, the talent development information processing apparatus 1 determines whether to generate a list of persons in charge of business (step S14). The determination on whether to generate a list of persons in charge of business may be made, for example, based on whether the user has set up the list creation in the setting screen. If it is determined that a list of persons in charge of business is to be generated (step S14: YES), the talent development information processing apparatus 1 generates a list of persons in charge of business (step S15). The list generation unit 15 is capable of generating the list of persons in charge of business.
After executing the process in step S15, or if it is determined that the list of persons in charge of business is not to be generated (step S14: NO), the talent development information processing apparatus 1 determines whether to compute the correlation coefficient (step S16). Whether the correlation coefficient is to be computed may be determined, for example, based on whether the user has set the correlation coefficient computation in the setting screen. If it is determined that the correlation coefficient is to be computed (step S16: YES), the talent development information processing apparatus 1 computes the correlation coefficient (step S17). The computation of the correlation coefficients may be performed by the computation unit 16, for example.
After performing the process in step S17, or if it is determined that the correlation is not to be computed (step S16: NO), the talent development information processing apparatus 1 determines whether the change information is to be generated (step S18). Whether the change information is to be generated may be determined, for example, based on whether the user has set the generation of the change information in the setting screen. If it is determined that the change information may be generated (step S18: YES), the talent development information processing apparatus 1 generates the change information (step S19). For example, the generation of the change information may be performed by the change information generation unit 17.
After performing the process in step S19, or if it is determined that no change information may be generated (step S18: NO), the talent development information processing apparatus 1 provides the suggestion information (step S20). The suggestion information may be provided, for example, by the suggestion information providing unit 18 providing a web site to the web browser 21 of the user terminal 2. After performing the process in step S20, the talent development information processing apparatus 1 completes the operation shown in the flowchart.

A program that implements the functions configuring the apparatus described in this example may be stored in a computer-readable recording medium, and a computer system may be caused to read and execute the program stored in the recording medium to perform the various processes described above in this example. The phrase “computer system” here may include hardware such as operating systems and peripheral devices. The “computer system” may also include the environment for providing the web site (or the display environment), if the www system is employed. In addition, the phrase “computer readable recording medium” may include flexible disks, optical magnetic disks, ROMs, writable non-volatile memory such as flash memory, a portable media such as CD-ROMs, and storage devices such as hard disks that are built into computer systems.
Further, “a computer readable recording medium” may include any medium that stores programs for a certain period of time such as a volatile memory (e.g., dynamic random access memory DRAM) inside the computer system that serves as a server or client when the program is transmitted over a network such as the Internet or a communication line such as a telephone line. The above program may be transmitted from the computer system that stores the program in a storage device or other device to another computer system via a transmission medium or by transmission waves in the transmission medium. The “transmission medium” that transmits the program refers to a medium that has the function of transmitting information such as a network (communication network) such as the Internet or a communication channel (communication line) such as a telephone line. The program above may also be used to embody some of the functions described above. Furthermore, the functions described above may be combined with the programs that have already stored in the computer system, i.e., difference files (difference programs).
The examples have been described above with reference to the drawings, but the specific configuration is not limited to these examples. Various modifications are also included to the extent that they do not depart from the spirits of the present disclosure.
