Abstract

Purpose

This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies.

Design/methodology/approach

This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context.

Findings

Globalization and the seemingly incessant advances in technology have helped make the competitive environment increasingly challenging for businesses today. But these are not the only issues. Companies in addition have to cope with demographic shifts. The workforce is aging, and there is a shortage of young workers available to fill the voids left by retirements. Under the circumstances, retaining existing talent accrues even more importance. The value of talent is indisputable. It can prove hard for others to replicate and might also be utilized strategically in the quest to achieve success for the firm.

Originality/value

The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
