A Few "Talent Lessons" from the Arts
Been meaning to publish this for a while. If we are in an Age of Talent, then we can turn to guidance from arenas where the Big Idea of Talent has been standard fare for eons. Namely, the likes of the arts. I put together a single PPT slide called "A Few 'Talent Lessons' from the Arts." You'll find the content (pretty self-explanatory) below—and then another tiny Special Presentation. To wit
Most of the Time Talent's Not Enough
You're a talented writer, designer, speaker, consultant, coach, salesperson, but doors aren't flying open for you. Why not? Talent, I'm afraid, is assumed - a lot of people have talent. It's the price to get into the game. Talent, married with creativity, however, is how you get out of the cheap seats. (In fact, creativity will allow you to get places with lesser talent than others - oops, potential self indictment)
How to Build a Great Team
Success in the workplace is no different than success in sports. It’s about having the best talent and using that talent, knowledge, skill and strength in the right place at the right time so you and your team can win the game. Do you know who your best talent is? Have you told them? Are you taking care of them? If not…Why not?
Those With the Best Talent Win
In a talent war there’s only one way win. And that is to hire and retain the best talent! Can you imagine a sports coach hiring average talent! As a manager you need to develop a real distaste for average.

"Doing What Comes Naturally"
One of the key skills of managers is to spot talent and nurture it. Not just in the odd person who comes along with obvious talent, but in those who are unaware of their talents or those who keep them hidden. Read this article to find out why nurturing talent is the secret to organisational success.
COMMUNITY WEB, INTERVIEW, JOB AND TALENT
Today the greatest challenge in front of leaders is to find the right talent for their organisation. It has become quite difficult to get the best talent for their team. Leaders need to find ways in order to find the best and the right talent for their purposes.

America’s Got Talent?
If you have been watching NBC on Monday nights recently you may have seen the show “America’s Got Talent”. It doesn’t specify what kind of talent America’s got – just that we have it. Tonight we had examples of talent from midget break dancers, a Frank Sinatra wanna-be, and a group of eleven year old dancing girls. I guess they define “talent” quite loosely on this show. Which brings me to the following question: just how do you define talent? Personally, I have been known to strum the banjo, but does that kind of talent prepare anyone to ascend the management ladder in today’s corporate America? I think not.

Upgrading Performance Closes More Sales: Lessons learned from 14 year old hockey players
Performing at your highest level is difficult to do over and over again. It’s not your talent that fluctuates. You may alter and upgrade your game plan and knowledge level, but at the end of the day true high-level performance seems to be driven by something other than talent alone. I believe winning at the highest level, closing the biggest or the most sales, is based on the energy you bring – with all other factors being reasonably similar.

Where Passion Meets Mission
Employee engagement is often the rallying cry for companies seeking to maximize productivity and retain valued talent. However, by not digging into the essence of who people are at their core and aligning the talent with the work that needs to be done, most companies are missing and mightily the talent treasure they already have.

The Myth of the Born Leader
The final level of mastery is to make it look natural. That's a key reason so many people believe achievement comes from winning the gene pool - either you're born with it or you're not. A tiny number of athletes, performers, artists, musicians, or leaders succeed without really trying. But the sad reverse is often even more true. We all know people with tremendous natural talent who do very little with it. More common are ordinary people with average talent who take it to extraordinary levels.
