As HR shifts away from just hiring people, clerical and filing jobs, there are different strategies which companies should adapt in order to keep themselves ahead of the game. Seth Godin's take on this issue made me stop and think about this topic for a while. Here is an interesting excerpt:
Understanding that talent is hard to find and not obvious to manage. The VP of Talent would have to reorganize the department and do things differently all day long (small example: talent shouldn't have to fill out reams of forms and argue with the insurance company... talent is too busy for that... talent has people to help with that.)
Personally, I think that in order to have the "talented" or the best ones in an organization, the company should have to be worth it. Of course, these people who were hired for that people would contribute a lot more than just the "normal" contributors hence the high expectance of something in return. Of course, this is not only in the financial aspect but much more that could satisfy each and everyone's motivation to work.
