Talent Management

Current approaches to talent management are missing opportunities to benefit people and organisations by capturing and sharing what high performers do differently. Talented people can be expensive to hire, difficult to manage and may not excel at everything. An approach based upon Colin's work enables other people to emulate the superior approaches of high players whose lives and performance is also enhanced. Pioneer adopters have obtained huge returns on investment of over 20, 30 or 70 times in six months to one year. The approach advocated by CCT is set out in his book Winning Companies; Winning People.

Mentoring

Traditional approaches to mentoring are expensive, time consuming, and because they require physical meetings can only be offered to a few high fliers. People who mentor may be good at some things and hopeless at others. CCT is author of Developing Directors and has helped over 100 boards to improve director, board and corporate performance.
