Inside your company are people whose knowledge and expertise are vital to your firm's survival. They can quickly size up complex situations, recognize patterns that others don't see, and make wise, seemingly intuitive, decisions that lead to good results. What enables these individuals to produce such value is not simply IQ or talent, but deep smarts: a potent form of experience-based wisdom that drives both organizational competitiveness and personal success.
