Publisher Description: For professionals in the business of talent development, assessing competence and capability is crucial, especially in relation to recruiting the right leaders. Talent professionals can now use leadership assessments as a positive and powerful talent development tool, enabling them to hone development efforts and budgets to maximize return on investment. Going beyond the recruitment process where assessments are used primarily to "select," Leadership Assessment for Talent Development considers assessment as a tool within leadership development; a connected process that enables behavioral change in identified talent development areas. Comprised of contributions from business leaders who have become experts in leadership development, and academics in work-based learning, the book offers practical ways to use leadership assessments to enhance talent, rather than stifle it. Engaging and accessible for HR and coaching professionals, it goes beyond emotional intelligence towards transpersonal leadership, and is drawn from the extensive experience and research of practitioners in the field of leadership talent development. |
