Title: Reflections on leading young talents : a manager's perspective
Abstract: This piece presents an expert view on the topic of leading entrepreneurial talent in a global business environment. Based on a structured interview with a manager who heads a department of 250 employees in an enterprise with 2,000 employees, we explore best practices for managing young talents. By investigating different ways of engaging young employees, the research makes recommendations aimed at improving employers’ retention policies and reducing the risk of losing talented employees. Specifically, the interview offers a leader’s insights on talent management in the form of seven “ingredients”: (1) employee empowerment; (2) employee motivation as a long-term vision; (3) early investments; (4) cross-generational collaboration; (5) ensuring employee well-being; (6) transparent promotion criteria; and (7) leadership motivation.
