Booz & Companys Autumn 2009 strategy+business issue featured a compelling article on business innovation titled The Talent Innovation Imperative. The ideas stress engagement and employment brand as dynamics that can create momentum in building an organic talent culture.

Whats the business benefit? The future of talent management offers competitive advantage through unified talent management with a holistic approach to recruiting, performance management, development, and compensation.

Companies are now valued by the talent that operates the business, drives innovation, and meets customer needs. But most companies know more about the physical assets they own than the people they manage. Our new economy requires outstanding talent management solutions to drive business performance.

It doesnt make any difference if youre operating a business in Mumbai, Beijing or New York ” the No. 1 challenge facing every organization is finding and growing skilled talent.
