Filling your company with "A" players is a good thing!
This podcast was done in conjunction with the PEX (Process Excellence Network), a division of IQPC and the Process Excellence Week Europe which will be taking place April 4th - April 8th 2011.
I'm talking today with Christina Pritchard, an expert in Talent and Leadership Transformation and one of the founding partners at Meta-Lucid ltd.
I had an enjoyable time talking with Chris and especially learning about "Topgrading".
Jack Welch was a big proponent at implementing this at GE and to be honest I thought that "Topgrading" was more about firing the bottom 10% of your staff. I WAS WRONG.
Some of the other topics we discussed were:
- Are you remembering to map your "people development"?
- Do you have the right people in the right positions?
- How often do you use the best people you have for a job instead of the best people?
- What is Topgrading and why is it so useful?
Listen to the audio to learn more about Topgrading, how it's used and why it can be a useful tool in developing a successful organization.
You can hear more from Christina Pritchard and other experts at the IQPC Process Excellence Week Europe, which will take place on April 4th - 8th 2011 at The Brewery in London, UK.
