Getting started at GE, where he going up the company’s leadership institute and revamped the leadership pipeline under Jack Welch, Noel Tichy has served as a reliable advisor on management succession to such leading companies as Royal Dutch Shell, Nokia, Intel, Ford, Mercedes-Benz, Merck and Caterpillar.Right now Tichy draws in years of hands-on knowledge working with CEOs and planks to supply a framework for building a sensible, effective changeover pipeline, whether for a multi-billion buck conglomerate, a family group business, a small 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 yet others succeed in teaching and sustaining another generation of older leaders. He shows the common errors that can generate disturbing headlines and could even contact an organization’s survival into issue, and reveals the very best practices of those who got it right. Tichy also positions management talent development and succession where they belong: near the top of every leader’s agenda.
