While many business and leaders recognize this, they have until now lacked a strategic approach to achieving it. Competitive People Strategy is a comprehensive road map showing how businesses can connect their human potential to their bottom line, and it provides step-by-step guidance on how to create, test and measure a differentiated people strategy."--book cover
