This webcast equips HR and leaders to provide self-coaching guidance to those below the C-suite who would like to elevate their performance. Even in a demanding business environment, where HR budgets continue to shrink, cost need not be a barrier to helping your talent find their and your organization’s competitive edge.

Very nice presentation, and looking forward to picking up the book. I've seen several organizations start taking steps towards this in two ways. Generally as HR leverages resources within the business to drive compliance and performance. Specifically, a greater dedication of both internal and external resources to coaching and leadership, scaling through delegation deeper in the organization. Really like the individual accountability here - thanks so much.
My prior comment was intended for the prior webcast: "Immediately Improve Quality of Hire with Online Reference Checking"
Bryan, great point about false negatives. Determining high potentials definitely starts at the recruitment step, and is only honed in during employee development. Thanks for sharing!
Seen similar systems in action, and have found it to be very helpful. It does take a more discriminating approach on the part of the recruiter, requiring that information that could be potentially considered negative be more thoughtfully reviewed. Without this approach, there is a risk of missing out on good talent due to "false negatives."
