In this book, the authors expose the profound leadership crisis
that has, or will, impact virtually every enterprise. They
introduce the acceleration pool: a system that looks within the
organization to identify potential leaders, prepares them quickly,
and deploys them rapidly. They cover every aspect of leadership
development and succession planning, helping you understand the
types of executives your organization will need, diagnose strengths
and weaknesses, and respond quickly. They cover processes, roles,
establishing accountability, metrics, and the role of the CEO in
executive development. More than any other book, Grow Your Own
Leaders reflects today's realities, offering techniques that will
work no matter how fast your organization or marketplace
evolves.
