Learn how top companies solve the problem of leadership succession
from corporate America’s leading consultant.
A serious crisis looms in American management today. More and
more CEOs are failing; there remains an acute shortage of capable
replacements. The true dilemma in leadership is the stagnant state
of corporate leadership development. Because companies fail to hone
their unit managers’ leadership abilities, they are never able to
fill their succession pipelines. With unit managers stagnating,
companies have difficulty executing at every level, compounding the
crisis. In I>Leaders at All Levels, bestselling author Ram
Charan shows how top companies approach leadership development as a
core competency, recognizing that an adaptable leadership pool is a
competitive advantage, and focusing their attention on bringing out
the best in the leaders they have.
Charan reveals exactly what’s wrong with corporate leadership
development and tells how to make it right. He explains the concept
of a leadership ’gene pool’ and shows how companies can discover
just what ’DNA’ they need to succeed. He also details how to
uncover the hidden leaders in a company, when and where to bring in
fresh talent, how to coach, measure, and reward leadership, and
much more. For CEOs, directors, and anyone involved in leadership
development, Leaders at All Levels is an eye-opening guide
on how to get succession right.
