Дополнительные характеристики
One of management's biggest challenges is finding new leaders, and one of the questions that arises in this quest is whether to bring in new blood and fresh ideas or take advantage of home-grown experts already acclimated to an organization's corporate culture. The current labor shortage and a greater willingness by younger workers to change jobs have only added to this challenge. Recent books such as High Flyers: Developing the Next Generation of Leaders (1998) and Hidden Value: How Great Companies Achieve Extraordinary Results with Ordinary People [BKL Ag 00] have weighed in on the side of growing your own, and now Charan and his coauthors add their support. Charan is a leadership coach and has written extensively for academic and popular business journals. He and two fellow consultants describe the natural hierarchy of work that exists in most organizations, which takes the form of six career passages that the authors call the leadership pipeline. For leaders to progress, they must be working within each passage at a level appropriate to their skills, values, and use of time.
