The War for Talent

Book • 2001
The War for Talent, written by Ed Michaels, Helen Handfield-Jones, and Beth Axelrod, emphasizes the critical importance of talent management in corporate success.

The book, based on five years of research involving 13,000 executives from over 120 leading companies, highlights the need for a 'talent mindset' where leaders prioritize recruiting, developing, and retaining top managerial talent.

It discusses strategies such as crafting a winning Employee Value Proposition (EVP), rebuilding recruiting strategies, and focusing on retention through job sculpting and individual development plans.

The authors argue that having highly talented managers is essential for a company's competitive advantage and provide actionable insights for executives to improve their talent management practices.
