"There is no way to spend too much time on obtaining and developing the best people."
(Larry Bossidy)

Food for Thought:

"The war for management talent is intensifying dramatically. Last year [in 2000], McKinsey updated a 1997 study in which researchers surveyed 6,900 managers (including 4,500 senior managers and corporate officers) at 56 large and midsize US companies. The update found that 89 percent of those surveyed thought it is more difficult to attract talented people now than it was three years ago, and 90 percent thought it is now more difficult to retain them. Just 7 percent of the survey's respondents strongly agreed that their companies had enough talented managers to pursue all or most promising business opportunities. … The update also found that the companies doing the best job of managing their talent deliver far better results for shareholders. Companies scoring in the top quintile of talent-management practices outperform their industry's mean return to shareholders by a remarkable 22 percentage points. Talent management isn't the only driver of such performance, but it is clearly a powerful one."
