In keeping with Tom’s latest eBook, People First!, we’re highlighting a Cool Friend who wrote the book on Talent. Ed Michaels was part of a McKinsey & Co. group who studied the practices of 20 companies that excelled at finding and keeping talented employees. The study resulted in a 2001 book outlining the findings, and Ed Michaels was a coauthor of that book, The War for Talent. Tom’s chosen to bring the topic up for discussion a decade later, so it might be a good time to take a look at this Cool Friends interview. You’ll find some still useful insights.
