The War for Talent Review
| | This book is a good theory and in an ideal world it would all work out that way: the highly talented and highly skilled would get the promotions, good jobs, and plum assisgnments. But unfortunately, more often than not, the pie isn`t divided so nicely. There are often other reasons, not work/talent related, that a person gets a promotion or a job. The classic example is the boss` son getting handed a top job in a company, which still happens today. Also how do you fit Affirmative Action into the equation? AA is not based upon talents, only gender & race. Personally I wish more management would read this book and use the basic idea but it probably won`t happen. Companies keep talking about 'needing good talent' but they don`t walk the walk. |
