Filling a strategic position within your company can be challenging, particularly if you are working with limited resources and a tight budget. According to a study the Aberdeen Group conducted, 80% of companies stated that their top talent pressure is a shortage of critical skills available in the labor pool.

Why? Here are just a few key reasons:
- Hiring and/or promoting from within signals to your employees that you recognize their contributions and are committed to their growth.
