Mike Goldman on Transforming Talent Management for Lasting Impact
Description
In this episode of the Breakfast Leadership Show, Michael sits down with Mike Goldman to challenge the status quo of performance management. Traditional reviews often disengage employees and hinder organizational progress. Instead, Mike shares why leaders must focus on people growth as the true driver of profit.
They dive into the concept of “high-performance math” — showing that investing in top performers yields the greatest returns. Too often, leaders spend energy on underperformers while high performers walk away due to toxic culture or poor management.
Mike also introduces his simple talent management framework, designed to replace outdated annual reviews with ongoing coaching, accountability, and development. His insights, drawn from his latest book, stress the importance of making tough calls, avoiding mediocrity, and building an environment where employees actually look forward to work.
A must-listen for leaders ready to transform how they grow and retain talent.
