About this listen
Radical advice for reinventing talent - and HR
Typical talent-planning and HR processes are designed for predictable environments, traditional ways of getting work done, and organizations where "lines and boxes" still define how people are managed. As work and organizations have become more fluid - and business strategy is no longer about planning years ahead but about sensing and seizing new opportunities and adapting to a constantly changing environment - companies must deploy talent in new ways to remain competitive.
Turning conventional views on their heads, talent and leadership experts Ram Charan, Dominic Barton, and Dennis Carey provide leaders with a new and different playbook for acquiring, managing, and deploying talent - for today's agile, digital, analytical, technologically driven strategic environment - and for creating the HR function that business needs. Filled with examples of forward-thinking companies that have adopted radical new approaches to talent (such as ADP, Amgen, BlackRock, Blackstone, Haier, ING, Marsh, Tata Communications, Telenor, and Volvo), as well as the juggernauts and the start-ups of Silicon Valley, this book shows leaders how to bring the rigor that they apply to financial capital to their human capital-elevating HR to the same level as finance in their organizations.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Narrow focus and little backing.
This book has a very narrow focus on how the CEO should change the role of CHRO and add more tech solutions to track staff.
It doesn't really have many general principles that apply more broadly beyond the CEO and mainly focuses on how which revamp the role of the CHRO. It doesn't really help with how to support talent in any part of the business nor does it contain much in terms of backing for it's claims.
it has a handful case studies that seem to be ok but very little in terms of real studies or data that can validate the claims or general theory of the book.
Seems like a big miss to have a book that talks about the importance of data about your staff not providing any data for it's own conclusions. It also doesn't really talk about making sure that the data is actually relevant and well correlated to what metrics actually matter but mainly talks about the need for just more data.
In general there are a few good points about allowing for mobility in your workforce and making the most of peoples talents but for most people if you are not high up in HR or a CEO I would say it's not worth your time. There are better books out there to spend your time on.
