An annual publication from Montgomery Research
There has been demand from business leaders for
peer information around the latest methods for recruiting the best talent, retaining superior employees and training
programs as well as intelligence about how downsizing
and outsourcing affect a company's bottom line, quality
control and corporate identity.
Therefore, we have spent the past year reaching out
to the thought leaders in the human capital field and
have put together a tour de-force snapshot on the
latest technology services and ideas in managing the
modern workforce. The People, Performance, Profit project
is an invaluable resource for human capital improvements
that can ultimately help companies to increase employee
loyalty, gain market share and improve shareholder value.
This project distills the knowledge of leading visionaries
and best of breed vendors into a cohesive collection of
white papers, trend analyses, and solution provider profiles.
It presents HR solutions to the most important audience
– the executives who purchase and implement them.
Chapter 1:
Vision & Leadership
Leadership involves looking at indicators of current performance relative to expected performance and assessing whether adequate investments are being made now to assure the organization''s sustainable competitive advantage in the future. Innovative new approaches to leadership development that blend formal training, e-learning, coaching, and knowledge sharing are now being employed to extend and amplify the experiences acquired on the job by employees at all levels.
Chapter 2:
Building Organizational Capability
Adapting leadership and management behaviors to align with new business
priorities, changing organizational culture and employee attitudes, and attracting
and retaining skilled staff are keys to building organizational capability.
We know that improving workforce performance ultimately leads to discussions
about technology options, innovation, and the impact of the workforce on customer
service and loyalty.
Chapter 3:
Workforce Strategies
Companies that provide their employees with the latest technologies and
with learning and training opportunities improve individual performance and
create overall business value. Our analysis shows that employee development
and talent management are strongly associated with financial reward – investing
in human capital processes increases productivity, revenue growth and total
return to shareholders.
Chapter 4:
Future Challenges
Executives rising to the challenges of a transforming workforce reality need to be
aware of certain trends that impact efforts to attract and retain talented employees.
By adopting solutions that utilize science and technology, companies can improve
decision making and bring revolutionary change to their most critical asset.
