Talent Management and Talent Development are key to the way companies perform now and in the future, and I guess it is no surprise who the ones that are the best at it. The annual list for 2007 for the Top Companies for Leaders in Europe has just been announced, and the common theme amongst them, is that they all make leadership a critical part of the company's organisational structure. The top ten are:
- Nokia (Finland)
- BBVA (Spain)
- Inditex (Spain)
- GlaxoSmithKline (UK)
- L'Oreal (France)
- Ranstad Holding (Netherlands)
- Deutsche Lufthansa (Germany)
- UBS (Switzerland)
- SAP (Germany)
- BMW (Germany)
They have all leveraged their talent and built successful consistent leadership practices, by having a dedicated focus, passion and commitment to succeed. I haven't done the exercise ( I will leave that up to you Peter!) but it would be interesting to see how good all their career sites are for attracting external talent!
