Download Description
As companies recognize the value that superior leaders deliver, they're fighting harder than ever to recruit and retain the best. The combination of changing demographics and economic challenges means that companies no longer have the luxury of taking a trial-and-error approach-or of having no approach at all-to building leadership quality and depth. They want fact-based, tested methods and tools that fit with their organization's culture and support their business goals. They need clear guidance on how to build a diverse, highly qualified leadership team today and how to sow the seeds for great leadership tomorrow. Based on the world's largest study of the best approaches for building leaders, Leading the Way, provides this guidance. Through anecdotes and case studies from companies such as IBM, GE, Honeywell, The Home Depot, and many more, the book illustrates what Top Companies do to develop leadership talent, and suggests ways that organizations can implement the programs and practices that will ensure a holistic approach to sustaining capability and growing great leaders.
