Field Test Example for Employers: Midwest Health Network Uses TalentPass to Showcase Skills and Improve Team Collaboration
Midwest Health Network (MHN) is a healthcare provider with locations across the Midwest. To support its teams in providing the highest quality of patient care, MHN is testing Gobekli’s TalentPass. Through this field test, MHN employees across various departments—such as nursing, lab services, and administrative support—can document their skills, certifications, and work experience in organized profiles. TalentPass will help MHN streamline team assignments, especially for cross-functional projects, by giving managers a clear view of each team member’s qualifications.
Long-Term Vision
In the future, MHN looks forward to using advanced TalentSync features, such as team-based skill mapping and collaboration tools, to better align team composition and expand internal mobility opportunities for healthcare staff.
Team-Based Profile Setup for Project Assignments
With TalentPass, MHN employees create profiles that capture certifications (e.g., phlebotomy for lab techs, advanced cardiac life support for nurses), skills, and recent project experience. This allows managers to easily identify qualified employees for team-based assignments in cross-functional projects, such as specialized patient care units or temporary task forces.
Tasha: “This profile setup is handy! Now my skills are easy to see for different patient care teams.”
Amir: “And this makes it simple to connect me to the right assignments.”
Immediate Benefits: Improved Coordination for Cross-Functional Teams
With TalentPass profiles, MHN managers gain visibility into employee qualifications, which streamlines the formation of cross-functional teams. This setup ensures that each team has the appropriate skill mix, such as pairing nurses with patient care expertise with lab technicians who specialize in diagnostics.
Lisa: “Your diagnostic experience would be invaluable to our critical care project. It’s great to see these details all in one place.”
Amir: “I’d be excited to contribute—I have a lot of relevant experience.”
Enhancing Internal Collaboration Across Departments
Using TalentPass, MHN employees from different departments can now more easily collaborate on patient-focused initiatives, bringing their unique expertise to shared projects. This setup also helps employees from diverse backgrounds understand and appreciate each other’s skill sets, fostering a collaborative, interdisciplinary culture.
Tasha: “Your lab expertise complements our patient care efforts perfectly.”
Amir: “And knowing your experience makes it easier to coordinate. We’ve got a great skill mix for this project.”
