Thank you for your passionate comment, Kristy. Learning, development and leadership is absolutely a part of the conversation – within HR as well as being a critical component of business transformation that HR should be leading. Developing strong leaders who are aligned with and committed to the organization’s talent strategy drives momentum through clarity and engagement. I look forward to hearing more from you!

Thanks for your comment Michael. The intersection between talent and business is one of the most critical for any organization to explore. HR has the opportunity to transform itself and lead the way.

Susan, finding this post was the highlight of my week. I am thrilled to know that you are serious about advancing this type of thinking and I can’t wait to hear the outcome of this amazing group of thinkers. Will be following you on Twitter and attempting to soak up the vibe from out here in the Midwest. My personal passion is around developing kick-ass leaders who can make talent strategy come alive in the business, so I hope TD is a crucial part of your conversation.

Count me in as a willing participant to help implement and refine the insights you all generate.

Agree, Laurie! I’ve always loved the Einstein quote – “We can’t solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.” There is no precedent for navigating the times within which we live and that makes this even more exciting. To some degree, this offers us a clean slate to craft the future, while also recognizing the seeds of history that we can cherish and learn from to move forward. I’ve recently been hearing the phrase “standing on the shoulders of the past” to honor what was without having to conform to the past but to embrace change and transformative thinking. I think its quite relevant for today’s environment and Talent Camp.

I’m thrilled your joining the discussion and know we will define a path to arrive at amazing new territory.
