Review

“Taylor and Stern provide the reader with practical, viable tools that can serve to create and sustain a flexible, integrated, and creative business organization…invaluable for any company, large or small, profit or not-for-profit.” -- Graziadio Business Report

Book Description

A 2006 study by IOMA found that companies with effective talent management practices retain employees for longer time periods and outperform industry averages by 22 percent. But most HR departments are still using the same old cookie-cutter approach to finding new hires. This book offers a revolutionary new approach to attracting and hanging onto the best and brightest talent, providing real-world strategies for:

identifying and evaluating prospective employees

• deciding who will develop and progress into the management ranks

• fitting the person’s skills to the job

• developing a strategy to groom one’s staff and keep them happy

• and finding ways to reward them properly and keep them engaged

The book explores the latest thinking in employee relations, compensation and benefits, training, on-boarding, and development practices. This is a unique, powerful book no one concerned with finding and retaining the best people should be without.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent information October 23, 2009
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
It always good when you can get information from an insider. The insider knows the truth because they have traveled the path at the top. Who better to guide you than someone that is familiar with the path?
Everyone in a leadership role in a company/business should read this book. It will save you headaches down the road.
