This article provides a corporate boards perspective about what they are worried about; developing and enacting strategic plans that will enable their organizations to succeed.

Nice to have a boards perspective - provides a nice spin when applying talent management methodology.

Nice to ADP investing so much time and energy into these articles. Good information to have.

Although this video contains the word adolescent in the title the speaker makes a case for cognitive development into the thirties which is really interesting as we deal with younger workers and trying to identify potential.

I agree, good information on younger employees and indentify how they can contribute more fully to an organization.

Interesting and helpful having teenager in the house but great insight into working with "younger" employees.

Many of our discussions have talked about tight budgets and economic downturn. Here's a good article that shares how to focus on the core business and strengths.

Gallup's strengths-based development programs help you identify your natural abilities for providing near-perfect performances in specific activities, and then provides you with the latest discoveries and strategies for applying your strengths.

Good book - have read it and applied the findings.

Control is a mirage. The most effective leaders right now--men and women--are those who embrace traits once considered feminine: Empathy. Vulnerability. Humility. Inclusiveness. Generosity. Balance. Patience.

I like the point of seeking more diverse perspectives from all avenues for leaders to gain a greater knowledge of their enviornment.
