Ardent Partners has championed the effectiveness of total workforce management for years and validated its impact: “The very simple argument for building or developing a total workforce management program can be stripped down to a primary advantage: the contemporary talent supply chain is diverse, multifaceted, and spread across numerous sources (both legacy and fresh), and the businesses that can effectively find, engage, source, and ultimately manage this talent under a centralized program will be awarded the visibility to execute far superior business decisions in a real-time manner.

Business agility, which Ardent Partners defines as the ability for businesses to respond dynamically to real-time pressures and challenges, in its rawest form has dominated business discourse for several years.
