My experience and the associated meta-analysis is that the right science helps to ensure the opposite of the cloning effect you describe. It actually objectively assesses innate talents which are pa... More

Intergenerational Purpose-driven Performance

Every organization has a mission and usually a purpose. However, the extent to which every organization ‘lives’ or connects that mission is variable. While the youngest generation at work (GenY) notes having a purposeful job or doing purposeful work as a top priority across research studies, all employees seek...

Objective vs. Subjective & Individual vs. Role-based

Short-term: move measure of value that each human brings to a role or function, to significantly more objective and individualized levels. From the point of hire on:

Bias tied to old paradigms - blocks our ability to see potential

"When we judge a new idea based on the paradigm of the old idea, we end up not seeing the potential in the new idea. We need to get better at recognizing ideas in front of us. Am I clinging to a bias or paradigm of the old,...

Cultural deep-seated structured approach to change

Organizational change efforts (formally since the late 1980's and early 1990's) intially were designed to implement changes into organizations from a top-down approach therefore reinforcing a key barrier to adabtability: hierarchy-based and senior manager/sponsor lead approaches to change.
