Living Your Talent: Eliminating the Roadblocks that Get in the Way
Claiming your Talent Advantage and using it to Live Your Talents are more than theoretical concepts for me. I believe that Your Talent Advantage is not only your birthright, but also the road to a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

Helping Young People Find their Path: Strength Based Coaching and the U.S. Public School System
It amazes me how many children graduate from high school and even college with little idea of what they want to do with their lives and often even less of an idea about what their natural skills are. One of the reasons is that most schools fail to recognize multiple types of intelligence and teach to only two. I am convinced that much of the confusion about life and career direction that I encounter occurs when people who don’t fit the standard mold do not get recognition for their natural skills.

You Can Learn Any Skill With Training But You Can’t Learn To Love It!
Most of us have to acquire skills that are not innate and with enough training we learn to do them just fine. But no amount of facility and training can help us learn to love them. You can build your life around acquired skills, but nothing can take the place of natural skills that allow for creativity and inventiveness.

What Are You Waiting For? The Time is Now: Claim Your Talent Advantage
Each of us is born with a unique set of natural personal skills. When we learn to recognize and develop these personal skills into their full potential we are living our Talent Advantage. Applying this principle to our daily lives creates a greater sense of joy and life fulfillment.

Is Your Life Messing With Your Mind? Letting Your Natural Skills Take the Lead
What is going on that so many are not happy with what they do? Everyone is born with innate potential for a unique set of capacities, skills, and abilities. Unfortunately, very often this potential is left undeveloped, as people seek to build their lives and careers on capacities and skills that are outside their innate potential. A life built on acquired skills will mess with your mind. It will keep you exhausted physically, psychologically, and emotionally.

Living Beyond the Statistic and Claiming Your Talent Advantage
Building your daily actions around your natural skills means claiming Your Talent Advantage. Knowing what you do naturally well makes a difference in all aspects of your life; family, friendships, hobbies, work, everything. People are happiest and most satisfied in life when they are engaged in actions and activities that draw upon their natural capacities, skills, and abilities. Don’t become part of the statistic of people who hate what they do. Life is too short to spend it toiling at something that is no fun.

Searching For Success? Discover Your Talent Advantage First
Success and satisfaction in life or work is most often due to conscious development and use of our natural strengths. The more you consciously use your natural skills, the more they become true talents – Your Talent Advantage – and the more enjoyment and success you have in all aspects of your life.

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)

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.

The overuse of "people" as competitive advantage
A short piece focusing on having the right systems in place to effectively manage your talent, and thereby provide competitive advantage, rather than constantly focusing solely on the recruitment of individual talent alone.

"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.

Building an Effective Talent Management System
Your organization probably manages its cash flow very carefully. After all, if you run out of cash you are in real trouble. But how about running out of talent? Does your organization manage its talent as carefully as its cash reserves? For most organizations the answer is “NO!” In these tough economic times attracting and retaining talented employees can be your key to competitive advantage.

Does Living Your Talents Lead to Success?
If you have a positive attitude, follow your passion, and do what you love, do success and money follow? Success and wealth are never guaranteed in any undertaking in life. There is no guarantee that using Your Talent Advantage will lead to success. Pursuing activities that take advantage of skills and talents at which you are naturally gifted increases the odds of creating life success.

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.

Flipping the Coin for Top Talent - How Well Are You Hiring?
How do great leaders of successful companies spend half of their time? They spend it on people: recruiting new talent, picking the right people for positions, grooming young stars, developing global managers, dealing with under-performers, and reviewing the entire talent pool. Everyone agrees that talent is an important competitive advantage, but surprisingly, three out of four companies do not make their talent management programs a high priority. Hiring practices often are random and decisions often are based on intuition. In many cases, hiring decisions have success rates similar to flipping a coin!

Will Your Organization Survive?
For over 2 years now, organizations have been reducing employee count and attempting to get more from fewer resources. Times change. When the future becomes clearer the cash, on the sidelines will begin to enter the game. When that happens expect the greatest "talent rush" of our lifetime. Here is how to prepare to take advantage instead of being taken advantage of.
