The Importance of Managing Talent

“Two factors are essential to success:
the ability to innovate and the ability to
bring products to market very quickly.
Talent management is the piece that
connects the two.”
– Padmasree Warrior, CTO of Cisco
“The process of attracting and retaining profitable employees, as it is increasingly more competitive between firms and of strategic importance, has come to be known as the war for talent.” – Wikipedia.org
A talent management program must focus on strategic business needs; not just top performers and younger staff members – Trainingzone.co.uk
The greatest challenge for organizations is not to develop a talent management
strategy, but to keep it alive and up to date. The global economy is changing rapidly, and the talent management strategy has to keep pace with business strategy.– The Economist Intelligence Unit
One of the most important sources
of value for any organization today
is its people, from current and future
leaders to front-line employees.
– Accenture Research
A growing number of companies have recognized the need to develop supply chain management expertise. However, companies face a giant obstacle to achieving this goal: the shortage of trained supply chain management professionals at all levels. – AMR Research
“Executives worldwide overwhelmingly recognize talent management as integral to their ability to Innovate.” – The Economist Intelligence Unit
“In the face of intensifying competition, advances in
technology, and shifts in customer preferences…
organizations need to learn more than ever.”
– Harvard Business Review
