CIANJ's Virtual Event - The Strength of Talent: How to Grow Your People to Grow Your Profit
Tuesday, October 14, 2025 (9:00 AM - 10:00 AM) (EDT)
Description
Organizations face a critical challenge: achieving company goals when team performance is not optimized. Alarmingly, in a study of 1,200 leaders, only 2% found their performance management systems to deliver exceptional value. This gap directly threatens growth, as people growth is the #1 driver of profit growth.
Leaders feel frustrated and overwhelmed by underperforming teams, ineffective talent management processes, and the emotional toll of making tough decisions. This misalignment results in stagnant growth, reduced fulfillment, and missed opportunities for meaningful impact.
To unlock the full potential of an organization, leaders must have a clear, actionable framework to assess talent, develop their people, and confidently transition individuals who aren’t a strong fit. With 35 years as a leadership performance expert, Mike Goldman created The Strength of Talent framework as the solution, introducing a new metric—the Talent Density Indicator—to track progress, drive accountability, and strengthen the team.
In this session, you will learn:
• A 5-step process to maximize the performance of each member of their team
• A quarterly talent assessment process that encourages challenge, debate and accountability.
• What actions to take to leverage, develop and retain their highest performers.
• How and when to make the tough decision to transition someone out of the organization that’s not a strong fit.
• A new process to replace the tired, harmful and dreaded annual performance review.
