I do have to agree, it is a bit of a "yawn"..in the way this is put.... this is however a potentially beneficial (exciting) practice... as obvious or boring as some of these concepts seem the actual practice of this isn't all that frequently executed.

This is not necessarily anything all that new the one extremely true point is the "customization" of experience for customers/employees and thereby improving overall quality of service.

Interesting: What is the" Life Cycle Of Talent"?

Segmentation in talent?Talents gets major opportunities and flexibility?

Customize the internal customers"employees".

Engage ,optimally engaging employees , big challenge before all organisations globally?

These are basic common sense, highly uncommon in organisation.

Thanks

I thought this was kinda poetic, for a corporate-drone type. Makes a lot of sense, to people who must not have a lick of it to begin with. I slapped it on my Facebook. Worth a listen if you're stuck in a cube somewhere. Which I am no longer. Thank goodness. I've never been more creative in my life since being freed from that dungeon, quite literally in the case of my basement-dwelling position at a Fortune 100 where I was exiled for 10 years or so. And I am now a genuine... office of one.
