Succession Leadership is the Success Lynch Pin for Individuals, Businesses and Organizations
Succession Leadership is the Success Lynch Pin for Individuals, Businesses and Organizations
In today’s business world, we see and hear of examples of failed, ineffective or just bad leadership. General Electric is one of the best examples were bad leadership has spelled disaster.
Under the leadership of Jack Welch who retired in 2001, General Electric grew to an international, multi-billion dollar. Since the new leadership of Jeff Immelt, the stock has dropped over 50% in the last 8 years. Now the firm is in survival mode instead of thriving mode. The decline in stock value began before the recent financial meltdown. Excuses can be made, but bottom line the reason for this decline is the bad succession leadership under the current Chief Executive Officer.
Closer to home, bad leadership can be viewed from regional business networking organizations to local governments. No matter the structure of any organization, be it for profit or not for profit, bad leadership will result in everything from a decline in customer loyalty to poor business results.
How to develop leadership that is effective has turned into an entire new industry that being succession leadership. With many baby boomers retiring, organizations are scrambling to develop great leaders from within and from outside of their ranks. Many of these firms are establishing their own Leadership Institutes to ensure succession leadership for the future viability.
Since succession leadership planning is gaining momentum, human capital talent management is now beginning to take a stronger hold within the global economy. Leadership Institutes within medium to larger firms are becoming far more commonplace than just a few year ago. This change in belief may also help to explain the increase in leadership coaching that small businesses to C Suite executives now embrace as a necessary business strategy.
Now, not later, is the time to start developing ethical and results driven leadership in your business by recognizing that succession leadership is the lynch pin to success. Implement a succession leadership program in your organization. Develop those hidden leaders and work with them to become leaders who will take your business to that next level of success.

Leanne Hoagland-SmithAre your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?" Please call for a free strategy session at 219.759.5601. - Visit Leanne Hoagland-Smith's Website |
