The Talent Advantage

Key Business Challenges Dissected
and Clarified

Packed with the wisdom from more than five decades of work with CEOs and other senior managers, The Talent Advantage brings new focus to one of the most dire problems facing today’s corporate leaders. How do they attract and retain top talent – the top 10 per cent of their workforce who have the greatest influence over the success of their organization?

Co-authors Dr. Nancy MacKay and Dr. Alan Weiss challenge a number of widely held views and offer their insights that have been tested and proven by top executives from around the world. Together they push readers in directions they hadn’t anticipated and offer compelling proof on:

  • Why it’s so important for CEOs and senior executives to make attracting and retaining top talent an important priority in their business schedules
  • How to define and identify top talent and why it’s more than pure performance within an organization
  • Why top talent must be attracted rather than recruited and how this key group of employees can be nurtured so they remain satisfied
  • Why top talent cannot be easily replaced and why it cannot be “bought” with sheer money
