Nineteen experts examine research-based theories and current practices in highly successful enterprises, and explain how you can adopt effective, state-of-the-art methods to integrate your talent management functions.People are the most important asset in any organization, yet managing talent as a cohesive strategy is surprisingly rare.

These contributors (including Marshall Goldsmith, Peter Cappelli, Leslie Joyce, and Edward E. Lawler, among others) provide practical advice about how you can adopt effective, state-of-the-art methods in your own organization.You'll benefit from the different perspectives of these world-renowned thought leaders and practitioners as they explain how to develop a comprehensive strategy that aligns big-picture organizational goals with the challenges of finding and keeping talent. You'll also learn firsthand about the best practices of corporations like 3M, Agilent, GE, Hertz, Cisco, and others who have pioneered efforts to make their organizations perform better through people. Integrated talent management is an approach to building organizational capability and engagement by integrating talent acquisition, development, and deployment across traditional HR silos. This process keeps all aspects of talent management aligned to business goals. The Executive's Guide to Talent Management will present strategic and tactical guidelines for training and development professionals seeking to play key roles in the process.
