Book description
An updated and revised version of the bestselling
The Leadership Pipeline -
the critical resource for how companies can grow leaders from the
inside.
In business, leadership at every level is a requisite for
company survival. Yet the leadership pipeline -the internal strategy
to grow leaders - in many companies is dry or nonexistent. Drawing on
their experiences at many Fortune 500 companies, the authors show how
organizations can develop leadership at every level by identifying
future leaders, assessing their corporate confidence, planning their
development, and measuring their results.
New to this edition is 65 pages of new material to update the model,
share new stories and add new advice based on the ten more years of
experience. The authors have also added a "Frequently Asked
Questions" section to the end of each chapter.
