High-growth enterprises face challenges such as organizational complexity, insufficient talent pipelines, and opaque promotion processes during expansion. This study examines a leading biotechnology company, applying competency model design, 360-degree assessments, and talent inventory tools to explore a data-driven organizational development model. Based on 1,200 employee assessment records and three years of performance evaluation data, the study employed multiple regression and cluster analysis to validate the impact of competency model alignment with promotion pathways on leadership pipeline retention rates. Results demonstrated a 22% increase in high-potential talent retention over three years, with promotion velocity showing a significant positive correlation (R²=0.47, p<0.01) to competency model alignment. Furthermore, by integrating engagement surveys with competitive incentives, the project achieved over 90% employee participation while saving more than 1 million yuan in budget. This research demonstrates that data-driven OD models can significantly enhance organizational efficiency and provide quantitative references for talent strategies in the biotechnology industry.
