Most people already know the general story around Henry Ford’s endearing contribution to both the means and method of business. He was 40 years old when he incorporated the Ford Motor Company, 45 when he launched the iconic Model T automobile, 50 when he revolutionised manufacturing forever by introducing a previously unimagined “integrated moving assembly line” in his factories. An innovation so powerful that it took the “per-unit” manufacturing time of the Model T from an already efficient 12.5 hours per unit down to 90 minutes. And he was 51 when he stunned corporate America by doubling the daily wage for his workers to $5 (reportedly to counter high employee turnover caused by the monotony of life on the assembly line), a move which clearly worked- for close to 10,000 people inundated Ford’s hiring office the next morning.

Talent Economics: The Fine Line Between Winning and Losing the Global War for Talent
Kogan Page; 1st edition
December 03, 2012
The microscope on talent is in sharp focus and HR has more programmes and processes to manage talent than ever before. Yet many CEOs continue to see talent management as an escalating risk. The truth is that market realities across the world are so fundamentally different that one size solutions almost never succeed.
Talent Economics is a refreshingly new, outside-in view on talent, which brings workforce analysis, management practice and strategy together. It uses economic inquiry as a discipline to present a brand new perspective in talent management - as simply put - economics is the study of how the forces of supply and demand allocate scarce resources. Talent Economics presents business leaders an opportunity to step back and understand the ebb and flow of global talent, before translating this new understanding into a winning strategy.
