I read the important bits. As much as they tried to update this edition, I found it wholly out of date. I've thought a lot about moving from individual contributor to manager. However, it only works because my local office is a traditional part of a large company. I do not think it'd be translateable to smaller companies or to more progressive offices (that align more with modern thinking) in my company. Because of that, I only skimmed the last few chapters. The future of work is much different than the past has been.

It has been two decades since the publication but in my college, it is considered classic, still relevant, and has become one of two textbooks from author Ram Charan to be used in the subject Leadership and OB . It focuses on structured transitions and skill sets required at each leadership level, career progression, and managerial and leadership capabilities development.

In contrast, today's self-development books better explore adaptability, emotional intelligence, personal growth, diversity, and digital transformation which this book lacks due to its age.

A grande maioria dos livros sobre liderança são ''boring", mas trazem um conteúdo ou outro que deve ser absorvido. Esse tem alguns insights, mas na sua grande parte tenta vender um modelo de consultoria.

As a pastor who invests into people in the nonprofit sector, I found this to be a valuable resource. They were large sections that I found nontransferable as it spoke to business management positions in very large and complex organizations that often don't translate to a smaller organization. Some concepts were very focused on the organizational structures of a production focused company rather than a service organization. However there are some gold nuggets in it.

There are some great lessons learned about helping people identify values that cause them to resist the pipeline (that is, investing in people and not just programs). They also do a great job of identifying important competency transitions (and how important transitions are) when moving from one level on the pipeline to the next.

I got the book recommended by someone I consider an expert on the field. For me, the book was an eye-opener for something that I probably should have thought more about. I can't wait to out this into use even though it isn't a shoo-in for smaller organisations.

I'd highly recommend this book for anyone looking to learn more about leadership development.

If you only read one book about leadership talent planning, this is it. Classic and excellent book on how to look at the skills, time application and values needed for different levels of leadership. Following this can help develop talent, and avoid confusion and frustration.

Fica a dica de livro para meus colegas aspirantes a líder! Aborda as seis passagens, incluindo análise das áreas foco (gerenciamento do tempo, habilidades e valores), métodos de diagnóstico dos gaps e por fim, o quão importante é a empresa investir em seus colaboradores internos almejando um pipeline contínuo e aderente com a estratégia.

The book was recommended to me by a friend and I can't thank him enough for this suggestion.
This has to be a Bible for anyone who wants to grow in their career from an individual contributor to a manager of people, manager of managers and so forth.
The book is a bit dry but it has such an immense amount of advice and tactics that it is just invaluable for literally anyone.
