In order to uncover best and next practices in talent management, and identity areas requiring improvement, DDI and HCI will survey leading organizations and analyze findings. Research is aimed at determining whether organizations have the best talent in key positions, as well as how they manage human capital.

"The research will also play a role in shaping the future of organizations' talent initiatives."
