The world has changed significantly in the past 35 years. In 1989, Apple introduced the first portable computer (weighing 16 pounds, no less!). Fast forward to today, and we’re constantly connected through supercomputers that fit in our pockets.
In those early days, as the internet was emerging and possibilities were endless, Talent Plus was founded with a simple yet profound question from Dr. William E. Hall: What would the world be like if everyone did what they were good at and enjoyed?
Since then, teams of innovators and pioneers have driven Talent Plus’ mission, partnering with thousands of clients in discovering and developing top talent. Relationships are the “Plus” in Talent Plus. It’s a privilege to adapt and stay connected to the communities we’ve served over these many years.
As we celebrate 35 years, we’re looking ahead. While I can’t predict when our current fashion might feel outdated, one thing’s for sure: Talent Plus will continue to be here, helping individuals maximize their potential.
Join me as we explore some exciting developments on the horizon for the coming year!
Personalized Learning
Every person has their own unique set of talents. So why shouldn’t their learning and development (L&D) be equally unique?
In the coming year, Talent Plus L&D solutions will provide hyper-personalized learning paths that align with an individual’s development and talent goals
Predictive Analytics
Science tells us that talent can predict a lot about an individual’s future success in a role. As a business, we are excited to bring more predictive tools to our suite of solutions.
Soon, your organization will be able to leverage Talent Plus’ predictive analytics to better envision where and how talent will take your organization to the next level.
Streamlining and Embedding Solutions
From the very beginning, Talent Plus has upheld ease for our clients. In the era of bespoke organizational systems, easily embedding talent solutions is a priority.
Our teams have been working hard to identify ways to quickly and efficiently connect Talent Plus solutions to your systems. These connections streamline processes and create better experiences for your teams.
Every day is a new opportunity to grow and deepen what my family started over 35 years ago. As our business evolves with the latest tech and science, we remain grounded in the belief that everyone has talent. Thank you for being alongside us on this journey.
Happy 2025!
