How are the world's most successful organizations developing their leaders? This book is a valuable resource for anyone involved in leadership development initiatives. It offers practical examples and tools from companies renowned for their leadership programs. By utilizing the case studies, you can benchmark against SmithKline Beecham's 21 Leadership Competencies and implement innovative tools like Allied Signal's Career Profile and performance objectives. You can also customize a training curriculum tailored to your organization, drawing on insights from Imasco's Operating Company Visits, Colgate-Palmolive's Key Accountability program, and Abbott Lab's Managing Across Boundaries. In a 1998 study by Linkage, Inc. and Warren Bennis, over 350 companies were surveyed about leadership development. Findings revealed that while nearly all recognized the need for stronger leaders, less than 44% had formal processes for developing high-potential employees. Successful companies employ structured leadership development systems, incorporating formal training, 360-degree feedback, and crucial exposure to senior executives through mentoring programs. The outcome of this study is Linkage Inc.'s Best Practices in Leadership Development Handbook, which provides access to practical tools, instruments, training, and competency models used by fifteen world-class organizations to effectively implement their leadership development programs.
