Chapter 4 in The Modern Family Business, 2012, pp 107-157 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Talent management and top management succession are important issues for the leaders of any organization because they provide a company with resources needed to thrive in the future. A business can choose either to develop talent internally or to hire managers from outside. Recent research indicates that an internal successor for the position of CEO achieves better and more long-term results if he or she can maintain an objective perspective on the business as well as perceive the necessity for change (Bower, 2007).
