Starting out at GE, where he going up the business's command institute and revamped the command pipeline under Jack port Welch, Noel Tichy has dished up as a reliable advisor on management succession to such leading companies as Royal Dutch Shell, Nokia, Intel, Ford, Mercedes-Benz, Merck, and Caterpillar. Now Tichy draws on years of hands-on experience working with CEOs and planks to give a framework for creating a smart, effective change pipeline, whether for a multi-billion buck conglomerate, a family group business, a little start-up, or a non-profit. Through uncovering case studies like Hewlett Packard, IBM, Yahoo, P&G, Intel, and J.C. Penney, he examines why some companies fail and others flourish in training and sustaining another generation of senior leaders. He features the common faults that can generate embarrassing headlines and may even call an organization's survival into question, and reveals the best practices of those who first got it right. Tichy also positions command talent development and succession where they belong: near the top of every leader's agenda.
