Every company wants high performers. They’re more productive, highly driven, can save you money on hiring and, if you can keep them around long enough, they have the potential to do great things for your organization. But when it comes to attracting them, it seems companies are still stuck with their outdated ideas of talent acquisition. What’s the key to recruiting high performers ? Compassion.

A constant challenge for managers is balancing immediate concerns with employee development and growth. Too often, in the rush to meet deadlines, prepare deliverables, and focus on direct revenue producers, we don’t find the time to discuss our reports’ career goals and development. Instead, we put these conversations on the back burner, and relegate them to the periods, once or twice a year, when performance reviews take place. Despite good intentions, we all do it, and it’s a constant struggle. But research shows that professional development does impact the bottom line, in measurable ways.
