How to Help Superstar Employees Fulfill Their Potential
By: Anthony J. Mayo
Abstract
To better understand the leadership challenges and development opportunities facing high-potential employees, researchers analyzed more than 3,000 applications to Harvard Business School’s High Potentials Leadership Program over a nearly 20-year period. The high-potentials themselves identified five consistent leadership challenges—leading teams, leading change, leadership style, leading at scale, and driving business results—and their sponsors identified six areas of development—strategic management, emotional intelligence, communication, leading at scale, leading teams, and relationship management.
