Kelley and Edie have sounded that alarm--it's time for companies to recognize peoples' whole talent and skills. They outline how to remove the barriers, dispel of the silos, and unlock a skills-based, mobile workforce from inside your company to meet the needs of the future.”

“A great manual on how best to leverage human talent in corporate and not for profit organizations. Investing in the home team, with a commitment to individual career plans. Connecting people using state of the art technology platforms. All of these tips and tools written before the onset of COVID. Who knew the future relevance of these suggestions?
