The Big Idea
There is a growing need to develop leaders within many corporations. The demand for leaders greatly outpaces the supply. With this reality comes an even greater challenge-- to bring in a “new blood” for fresh ideas or to just maximize the expertise of the “home grown” talents.

This book sheds light into this concern by introducing the leadership pipeline model? the series of levels leaders go through in every organization. Understanding its nature and unclogging these particular pipelines greatly help organizations find and develop people inside the company to become the future leaders of the corporation.
