Wasting talent
John Hagel has written a thought-provking entry (actually all his entries are like that) on how companies fail to understand the dynamics of talent:
Corporations around the world face a systematic and sustained squeeze on profitability. This squeeze comes from two different directions simultaneously – customers and talent.
Our performance measurement systems are woefully unprepared for this squeeze – indeed, the squeeze is occurring precisely because most managers are not measuring the levers that count for sustained profitability. We are saddled with accounting and measurement systems that measure last century’s drivers of profitability, not the drivers of twenty-first century profitability.
