Making the wrong choice – Part two: Executive assessment

Abstract

Explains that eliminating failures in senior‐level selection can only be achieved by laying a solid groundwork in particular in the transition from middle manager to general manager. Notes that assessment must recognise the developmental nature of executive work. Proposes an expanded methodology and concludes that we need to make selections based on systematic, continuous and multidimensional assessment.
