Developmental Assignments

Developmental Assignments by Cynthia D Mccauley

This book is modeled after Eighty-eight Assignments for Development in Place, one of CL's most popular publications. In the years since that report was published, we have learned more about development in place--from research, from working with managers and organizations that are making use of developmental assignments, and from our colleagues in the field. We believe it is time once again to consolidate our knowledge into one tool to help leaders add developmental assignments to their own jobs and help others do the same. The tables inside this book are full of assignments. You'll also find cross-references to CL's assessment tools: 360 by Design, Executive Dimensions, Benchmarks, Prospector, and Skillscope. If you want to target the development of specific competencies as a result of receiving feedback from any of these, the cross-references will direct you to appropriate assignments.

This series of guidebooks draws on the practical knowledge that the Center for Creative Leadership (CCL) has generated, since its inception in 1970, through its research and educational activity conducted in partnership with hundreds of thousands of managers and executives. Much of this knowledge is shared-in a way that is distinct from the typical university department, professional association, or consultancy. CCL is not simply a collection of individual experts, although the individual credentials of its staff are impressive; rather it is a community, with its members holding certain principles in common and working together to understand and generate practical responses to today's leadership and organizational challenges.
The purpose of the series is to provide managers with specific advice on how to complete a developmental task or solve a leadership challenge. In doing that, the series carries out CCL's mission to advance the understanding, practice, and development of leadership for the benefit of society worldwide.

Cynthia D. McCauley is vice president of New Initiatives at CCL. Her work has focused on leadership development through 360-degree feedback, job assignments, and developmental relationships.

McCauley has published widely, including coediting The Center for Creative Leadership Handbook of Leadership Development (Jossey-Bass, 1998) and coauthoring Should 360-degree Feedback Be Used Only for Developmental Purposes? (CCL, 1997). She holds a Ph.D. in industrial/organizational psychology from the University of Georgia.
