From the Inside Flap

The systematic management of executive talent is a key strategic challenge for most large corporations. This is an emerging field and, consequently, there is a lack of consensus about what is involved and a variety of approaches have been adopted. In Developing Executive Talent Jonathan Smilansky, PhD summarizes the key activities and concerns of large businesses in the USA and Europe that are focused around the identification, development and effective utilisation of executive talent. In doing so, he provides even the most experienced Human Resource executive with a much broader array of inputs about what today's leading organisations are doing in this area.

What quickly becomes clear is that even the best businesses are still developing their talent management processes. There are not 'right' answers and different organisations, with different levels of commitment, at different stages of development and in different environments produce different approaches. Developing Executive Talent is a map that lets you compare your organisation's approach with what others are doing in this area. It also grants you  a close-up view of alternative processes designed to identify and develop the leaders of tomorrow. By learning from the experience of others you can become an 'educated consumer' of talent management services, and help both your organisation and your own career.

With quotations from Heads of Human resources describing their experiences and concerns, specific tools and processes used by large businesses to identify and manage the leaders of tomorrow, Developing Executive Talent offers the clearest and most coherent picture to date of how leading organisations are tackling this critical business challenge.

From the Back Cover

"The input from a broad base of business leaders provided in this book helps the reader to learn from the experience of others and apply it to their own setting."
— Tracy Robbins, Executive Vice President of Human Resources, InterContinental Hotels Group Plc

"This book describes a comprehensive approach to talent management which is of critical importance for building effective leadership in all types of organisations."
— Christine Lloyd, Executive Director of People & Organisational Development, Cancer Research UK

"Every day organisations destroy value for shareholders because they are unable to identify and unlock the talent within their business. Talent management is probably one of the most significant value creating or value destroying capabilities that any organisation can have.

That's why learning from those that have found a way of doing this is so important for anyone in a leadership role. This guide is a great place to start."
— Lynne Weedall, Human Resources Director, Hospitals Division, Bupa

"At last - a concise and highly practical book on one of the most critical areas of modern commercial management - with the added benefit of an approach based on the realities of what actually works in a variety of organisational contexts. The content is both thought-provoking and of immediate practical use."
— Alastair Procter, Head of International Human Resources, Universal McCann
