Leadership, Intangibles & Talent Review Q1 2009

Hi everyone,

As we try to make our way through the recession, I've attached a copy of our review of the research and commentary into leadership, intangibles and talent during Q1 2009.

If you'd like to download a pdf or read the full version, you can do so here.

An introduction is below;

The financial crisis is still uppermost in people’ s minds and new ideas and insights are slowly emerging, interestingly not always from organisations which one would term the “HR establishment”. Over and above this, other themes for this quarter include;

• Leadership development is going nowhere fast
• HR’ s relevance to an organisation’ s success
• HR acting more like a teenager, or not
• Command and control, enterprise 2.0 and amplified workers
• Successful recruitment via a self directing process
• A lack of creativity and death by data
• The big picture HR role
• Innovation, change and new ideas

As always any comments and feedback are welcome!
