Who We Are

Talent Plus is the premier global human resources consulting firm with over 200 world-class, quality-growth-oriented clients. Our long-standing client relationships date back to the 1960s when we first began utilizing scientific studies of success to build high-performing Talent-Based Organizations^SM (TBOs^SM).

Talent is a natural ability not acquired through effort. It is a person’s capacity to achieve near-perfect performance. Unlike skills and experience, talent is a reliable predictor of performance excellence.

We believe every person has talent; however, talent’s expression is dependent upon the opportunity to express it.

Based on documented performance outcomes of many Talent Plus clients, we know when people are cast in the right position for their talent and continuously developed over the long term, they achieve peak performance. The cumulative effect becomes a key driver of sustainable excellence and a competitive advantage.

The challenge for CEOs and human resources leaders is to identify and harness the power of talent in their own organizations. Talent Plus has the research, selection instruments and supportive technology to help clients recruit and properly select talent – repeatedly – with exponential returns on investment.

Through ongoing collaboration, Talent Plus works alongside clients in the journey to becoming Talent-Based Organizations^SM. We provide four distinct implementation capabilities based on The Science of Talent^SM from recruitment and aptitude assessment to ongoing talent development and management.

Utilizing a time-tested, scientific approach of studying top performers, client partners are able to further define their culture through the acquisition, retention and recognition of top talent.

The idea behind Talent Plus began in a one-room schoolhouse in Pleasant Valley, Ore., where Dr. William E. Hall taught eight different grades.

A Talent-Based Organization^SM selects hard so it can manage easy. Its leaders recognize that human capital, like any type of asset, can appreciate, depreciate or become a liability. The organization’s integrated top-to-bottom commitment to proper talent recruitment, selection, development and investment strategies reduces risk to its talent pool, minimizes the challenges of transition, and enables succession planning.

When talent is cast in the right position and developed long term, the impact is far-reaching: people thrive; companies thrive; communities thrive. If your company is committed to growing into a world-class Talent-Based Organization^SM, contact Talent Plus.
