Solve the succession crisis by growing inside-outside leaders

摘要

I WAS APPALLED TO LEARN RECENTLY that 60% of the respondents to a poll of 1,380 HR directors of large U.S.companies said their firms have no CEO succession plans in place.As this finding suggests,too many companies have over the past two decades ignored the hard work of building future leaders while senior executives have focused increasingly on meeting the next quarter's earnings target.When the time comes to name a new CEO,more firms look outside.
