Top companies
have leadership practices worth replicating. A recent
survey on leadership development provide some interesting
information.
The Hay Group
study identified the top best practices for leadership
development.
-
Ensuring
that the company and its senior management make
leadership development a top priority
-
Providing
training and coaching to help intact leadership teams,
as well as the individual leaders work together more
effectively and
-
External
leadership development programs for mid-level managers.
The study also
stated focusing on identifying and managing the talents of
high potential candidates will rise to the top of the
agenda. Organizations that are able to identify, develop
and promote their leaders from within will find themselves
better positioned than their peers to win the war for
leaders—and to safeguard their organizational futures. The
top companies are already focused on this.
Those
companies which are not prepared will be forced to rely on
external recruitment—which is usually much more expensive
and less dependable than internal promotion.”
