  2. Developing your leadership pipeline is labor-intensive. The reward for your efforts? The right skills at the top-and everywhere else in your organization • Effective succession management comes when you adopt a talent mind-set

  3. Leadership Pipeline Focus On Development Identify Linchpin Positions Make it Transparent Measure Progress Regularly

  4. Development • The fundamental rule-the one on which the other four rest- is that succession management must be a flexible system oriented toward developmental activities. • Mattel’s CEO, Barad had grown Mattel’s Barbie brand nearly tenfold in less than a decade, but her controlling management style and lack of experience in finance, strategy, and the handling of Wall Street proved to be her downfall.

  5. Linchpin Positions • Whereas succession planning generally focuses on a few positions at the very top, leadership development usually begins in middle management. • Collapsing the two functions into a single system allows companies to take a long-term view of the process of preparing middle managers, even those below the director level, to become general managers.

  6. Make It Transparent You create a stronger leadership bench when you openly tell managers where they stand on the performance and potential ladder, and what they need to do to advance. Measure Progress Regularly- Development is a long-term process, so its important to know whether the right people are moving at the right pace into the right jobs at the right time. Measurement helps you see where the pool of candidates is too shallow and when the number of attractive jobs is too limited to retain your highest-potential managers.

  7. Climbing the Ranks Marry Barra- #1 most powerful woman in Business globally-”Do every job you’re in like you’re going to do it for the rest of your life and demonstrate that ownership of it” Susan Wojciki-CEO of YouTube-she was SVP of ads and commerce for Google and was appointed as CEO of YouTube because the #1 issue for YouTube is not content or audience but its ad rates.
