Today’s large business organizations in India have a voracious need for effective managers and talented leaders; but demand far exceeds supply. This timely and practical book offers thoroughly-researched pointers on how managers can become high-performing business leaders. The leadership development curriculum proposed is based on extracting lessons from on-the-job experience. Given that the workplace is the medium through which the essentials of leadership are learned, executives and managers at all levels need to know which experiences matter, what are the foremost lessons learned, and how learning occurs. Developing Tomorrow’s Leaders Today offers a complete template for effective leadership.
The underlying research was conducted in cooperation with the Tata Management Training Center in Pune, India, and captures the experience and leadership lessons learned by over 100 senior Indian business leaders. As such it offers early and mid -career managers a roadmap for steering their careers towards the higher echelons of executive leadership; and for senior executives, a systematic and proactive approach to cultivating the leadership talent that their organization will require in the future. Global executives operating in India will find out how leadership and management are practiced in India.
