The Talent Management Handbook presents a clear and actionable human resources strategy that is tied to business success measures which are explained in the book.
With great thoroughness, the book integrates the key elements of human resources assessment (performance, potential, competencies, career planning, and succession planning) into a cogent system that can be utilized by both managers and human resources professionals in realizing organization success.
The book provides guidance to readers on the specific actions they need to take to implement key human resources strategies. These actions include training, development, education, career management, and compensation. In a practical way, it outlines the way an organization can cultivate its "best people," protect its incumbents and backups for key positions, and properly allocate its resources.
The book clearly identifies the conditions that will cause turnover, poor morale, and performance problems. Additionally, it shows how diversity can be a crucial part of the human capital plan.
(From quoting Steven McGuire, USA)

2. Six human resources conditions necessary for organization excellence
3. How to link your employee assessment process to career planning and development
The Talent Management Handbook will help you design career plans that boost employee morale, as well as create and sustain excellence in your organization.

The research has shown that, in most organizations, the infrastructure of human resources systems and processes is a jumble of unconnected, incomplete, and inconsistent methodologies. Senior executives and human resources practitioners understand the connection between organization excellence and effective people management. But most organizations, do not have a systemized approach for making this linkage--and it's hurting their business. The search for this linkage is over. The Talent Management Handbook reveals how to connect organizational excellence to people management by systematically identifying, keeping, developing and promoting the organization's best people.
Featuring the contributions of leading executives, human resources practitioners, and consultants, this book presents a comprehensive approach to talent management. You will learn the power of integrating your company's infrastructure of HR assessment, planning, and development tools into a single, cogent system. The Talent Management Handbook explains how to align your company's people with the current and future needs of the organization by placing employees in positions that maximize their value.
The authors identify three key steps to a human resources strategy that will drive your organization's success:
1. Identify, select, and cultivate "Superkeepers"-the employees your organization can not afford to lose
2. Locate and develop highly qualified backups for key positions, which are critical to organizational continuity
3. Allocate resources to employees based on actual and/or potential contribution to organizational excellence
The book also explains how to build all your HR disciplines on the "building blocks" of organizational competencies, performance appraisal, and forecast of employee/manager potential. You'll discover how to enhance employee improvement through coaching, mentoring, constructive dialogue, and feedback from many organization levels. You'll also learn about powerful reward systems, that support different talent management strategies. The Talent Management Handbook explains how to create a talent management system that dramatically improves your organization's return on its HR investment, while increasing the overall performance and satisfaction of every member of your organization.
