Identifying Future Managers and Developing Top Potential

Sylvie Roussillon and Frank Bournois

Chapter 23 in Handbook of Top Management Teams, 2010, pp 225-234 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Ways of recognising, developing and securing the loyalty of managers with high potential who are viewed as the top managers of the future are becoming more and more professionalised. We will start by suggesting five major current issues: the globalised jobs market; the move from potential to skills development; systems which aim for the greatest objectivity of both criteria and method; transparency of information; and diversity in top management teams, which still does not cater for the proper integration of women. We will end by drawing attention to the limitations of current practice and by suggesting innovative approaches to staff support.
