Business is changing from an industrial- to a knowledge-based environment, building more from professionals and their expertise. Corporations need to create internal organizations in which there is more emphasis on human capital and creating/sharing knowledge and talents. Talent management and knowledge creation should be new foci to create sustainability and long-term success. On the whole, organisations are working too much on an ad hoc basis, focusing on technology instead of creating an environment in which talents reinforce each other. In this review article we explore knowledge circulation, link knowledge, and talent to innovation, and discuss optimum circumstances for corporations to benefit from these assets.

Na het lezen van de handleiding, kan de begeleider het Autisme Talent Avontuur inzetten bij kinderen, studenten en/of onderwijszorgprofessionals. Er wordt verondersteld dat de begeleider parate kennis heeft rondom Autismespectrumstoornis. Om de kennis op te frissen, is er in deze handleiding kort beschreven wat er wordt verstaan onder een Autismespectrumstoornis.De complete set met handleiding, opdrachtkaarten en alle materialen is te lenen bij de Hanzehogeschool Groningen (lectoraat Jeugd, Educatie en Samenleving).Autisme Talent Avontuur is tot stand gekomen met medewerking van Retha Stegeman, Mariska de Peuter en Isabell Drewes.

Out-of-school science educational activities, such as school visits to a science center, aim at stimulating pupils’ science talent. Science talent is a developmental potential that takes the form of talented behaviors such as curiosity and conceptual understanding. This dissertation investigates whether and how out-of-school science activities contribute to the elicitation, emergence, and development of pupils’ science talent. The context of this thesis is the Northern Netherlands Science Network, an alliance of primary schools, out-of-school science facilities, the university of Groningen, and the Hanze University of Applied Sciences (www.wknn.nl). Interviews with the schools on their starting position showed that adequate communication between schools and out-of-school facilities is necessary to coordinate the participants’ educational goals. Secondly, the elicitation and expression of science talent was studied in the micro-interactions between pupils and their educator (classroom teacher or facility instructor). To do so, a multivariate coding scheme was developed to measure Pedagogical Content Knowledge expressed in real-time interaction (EPCK). The interaction shows a variable pattern over time. Sometimes episodes of high-level EPCK — so-called talent moments — emerge, in which talented pupil behavior in the form of pupils’ conceptual understanding, and talent elicitation by the educator in the form of open teaching focused on conceptual understanding, determine one another. These talent moments only occur in activities that were prepared in the classroom and with educators who were trained to evoke conceptual understanding. Under these conditions, out of school science activities can contribute to the elicitation and development of science talent in primary school pupils.AB - Out-of-school science educational activities, such as school visits to a science center, aim at stimulating pupils’ science talent.

VNO-NCW Noord is van mening dat, nu de economie groeit en de arbeidsmarkt steeds krapper wordt, hét moment is aangebroken om hier werk van te maken. In 2018 heeft VNO-NCW besloten om het thema ‘(er)ken je talent’ centraal te stellen. Binnen dit jaarthema heeft de werkgroep Talent Buitenspel zich beziggehouden met het onbenutte potentieel in onze arbeidsmarkt. Met de Inspiratieroute wil de werkgroep Talent Buitenspel werkgevers inspireren om op een andere manier te kijken naar het talent dat nu nog op de reservebank zit. De Inspiratieroute laat zien hoe je deze groep talent, de zogenaamde stille reserve, kunt vinden en binden.

Een nadeel van de toegenomen populariteit van talentmanagement is de grote mate van conceptuele onduidelijkheid (Collings & Mellahi, 2009). Op hoofdlijnen zijn er twee brede stromingen te onderscheiden (Visser, 2002). Binnen de eerste stroming ligt het accent op talent als zijnde een eigenschap. De tweede stroming richt zich vooral op de vraag wie er binnen een organisatie als een talent wordt beschouwd. Het hebben van talent staat hier dus niet gelijk aan het zijn van een talent. Dit artikel zet beide benaderingen helder tegen elkaar af.

This book examines the much-debated question of how to unleash the potential of young people with promising intellectual abilities and motivation. It looks at the increasingly important topic of excellence in education, and the shift in focus towards the provision of programs to support talented students in higher education. It provides a systematic overview of programs for talented students at northern European higher education institutions (HEIs). Starting in the Netherlands, where nearly all HEIs have developed honors programs over the past two decades, the book explores three clusters of countries: the Benelux, the Nordic and the German-speaking countries. For each of these countries, it discusses the local culture towards excellence, the structure of the education system, and the presence of honors programs. In total, the book reviews the special talent provisions for nearly four million students at 303 higher education institutions in eleven countries. In addition, it offers an analysis of the reasons to develop such programs, a look into the future of honors education and a practical list of suggestions for further research.The Sirius Program assigned Marca Wolfensberger to carry out this research.
