The Smart Work team (partners and network) has, through its long and varied experiences in business and in life, as well as through its association with Self Management Group, amassed its own "Smartworkepedia" of knowledge in the talent management domain. We offer these ruminations to you and encourage your feedback; we’d love to hear from you! If you'd care to comment on any of our Smart Thoughts please do so by clicking on the comment box.
