Abstract:
Despite
the job market doing poorly and
supply far exceeding demand, finding the
right talent continues to be a problem As the
challenges keep mounting you need even
better talent to cope with these challenges
effectively. Talent
quickly becomes the limiting
constraint for many high growth companies
And the biggest demand is for management
and leadership positions One of the common
strategies Sri Lankan companies adopt is to
promote from within their existing ranks and
then backfill with new, entry level talent It's
a good strategy when it works, but too often
you see companies promoting the wrong
people into the wrong roles and suffering in
the long run as a result.
