The CWDC developed the Talent Development Playbook to help businesses hire, train, and keep talented employees and identify and implement the talent development strategies that best meet their needs.
In these challenging and uncertain economic times, refining your approach to attracting, hiring, developing, and retaining highly talented employees is an investment in the ongoing strength and competitiveness of your business. This resource provides an overview of evidence-based talent development strategies, the business benefits of the strategy, tips for how to get started, and case studies on how Colorado employers are putting the strategies into practice.
