How To Keep Your Top Talent

The Corporate Leadership Council’s (CLC) recent study of employee engagement reveals that commitment levels among top performers are critically low — so much so that one-quarter of high-potential employees intend to leave their current employer within the year.

This ground-breaking analysis is the basis for Harvard Business Review’s feature article, How To Keep Your Top Talent. The article examines how companies like Johnson & Johnson, Novartis, and Procter & Gamble identify, motivate, and develop their rising stars to not only drive retention and ultimate succession into the leadership ranks, but also to maximize the effort they’re putting forth in their current roles.
