Ram Charan & Stephen Drotter 
The Leadership Pipeline [PDF ebook] 
How to Build the Leadership-Powered Company

Together, these authors have more first-hand experience in leadership development and succession planning than you’re likely to find anywhere else. And here, they show companies how to create a pipeline of talent that will continuously fill their leadership needs-needs they may not even yet realize. The Leadership Pipeline delivers a proven framework for priming future leaders by planning for their development, coaching them, and measuring the results of those efforts. Moreover, the book presents a combination leadership-development/succession-planning program that ensures a steady line-up of leaders for every critical position within the company. It’s an approach that bolsters the retention of intellectual capital as it eliminates the need to go outside for expensive ‘stars, ‘ who will probably jump ship before they reach their full potential anyway.
