Dear colleague
In this month's issue we take a look at
introverts and why we shouldn't underestimate their leadership
potential. And this month's blogs cover change and talent management.
We hope you enjoy this issue and welcome your feedback.

introverted leaders - innovation & change
Innovation is more than a capability: it's a
competitive advantage. The ongoing and cumulative impact of significant
global shifts are significant drivers of innovative capacity. Simply
put, commitment to development of innovative capacity means change.
Outgoing personality traits are traditionally
associated with top corporate roles and it is assumed that this type of
leader has the capacity to lead change; but new research suggests
businesses miss out when they fail to find and promote executives with
more understated styles.

redefining the talent management paradigm

In
recent blogs we've talked about a renewed interest in change management
and the importance of managing talent. These two strategies go hand in
hand. And the renewed interest in change management is not surprising as
it parallels the increasing need for organisations to harness the best
strategies, ideas and talent to deal with ongoing global economic and
financial pressures, significant layoffs and demographic shifts.
