Organisations today are increasingly competing on the basis of knowledge capital—the skills, expertise, and capabilities of their people.
In order to attract and retain people with the talent required to achieve critical business results, leaders must make a significant investment in their “talent portfolios.”
Coaching is a primary means of making this investment in employees and building knowledge capital—thereby enhancing both individual and organizational capacity.
