The Talent Imperative: Inside the US Army's Talent Management Transformation, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

This book tells the inside story of the US Army's transformation from an outdated personnel system to a cutting-edge talent management approach.

It provides an authoritative account of how talent management can directly enhance organizational readiness, innovation, and long-term effectiveness. Written by the very leaders who drove these reforms, the authors describe the bold initiatives they designed and implemented to modernize how a million-person force is recruited, developed, employed, and retained. The Talent Imperative blends scholarly insight and rigor with boots-on-the-ground pragmatism to describe how the US Army transformed its people management practices into a source of competitive advantage and strength. The book demonstrates that talent management is not a peripheral reform but a strategic adaptation essential to building well-trained, effective teams to meet the demands of future war. By illuminating how to leverage the talents of an organization's people at scale, the US Army's experience provides a case study in leading large-scale organizational change under extreme stakes.

By detailing the innovations, frameworks, and implementation strategies that underpin the Army's approach, the book provides practical lessons for defense policy professionals and military leaders, as well as scholars in military studies and human resource management. It will also be a valuable resource for executives, managers, and policymakers seeking to attract, develop, employ, and retain talent more effectively.
