Talent Transformation Book by Eric Shepherd and Joan Phaup

In this webcast, Martin Belton interviews authors Eric Shepherd and Joan Phaup to discover more about the visions and ideas that lay behind them writing their book, Talent Transformation: Develop Today’s Teams for Tomorrow’s World of Work. The interview reveals that the book was founded on a desire to arrive at a better way of defining our knowledge, skills, and abilities. It is this that led Eric to create what is the central premise of the book, the Talent Transformation Pyramid itself.
