In this edition, the author has expanded several chapters to provide a greater understanding of business strategies, environmental imperatives, and the changing role of HR as a strategic partner. The book includes more case studies, live examples, and models offering invaluable insight to users in order to develop customized models of competency mapping for their organizations.
Fairly typical HR book. A few interesting bits about development of the incumbent profile method, and some wartime psychology. Mostly just a book with a lot of "use this rating tool" (almost all which are subjective ratings) recommendations and no numbers.
Good part is that it is short. I read it in a few hours.
