Features: The theme of this book is about the enterprise succession management system, specifically how to cultivate leaders within the company. The focus is not on finding suitable candidates for a specific position but on identifying backup talent for a certain level and nurturing them. Assign them important responsibilities, give them opportunities to learn and practice, and allow them to grow through actual work. The methods introduced in the book are the first leader talent development program created by DDI in 1973 based on behavioral models. Afterward, this method was widely promoted worldwide, benefiting 6 million senior managers globally.
