Accelerated Leadership Development Reviews

A must-read for HR leaders who are charged with building a strong pipeline of leadership talent. Provides practical and effective solutions for accelerating leadership development; all brought to life by powerful case studies and quotes from HR and business leaders. * Maria Kokkinou, VP Talent Acquisition, Management & Development, Coca-Cola European Partners *
This timely book provides a compelling step-by-step guide for accelerated leadership development. Full of practical tips and examples from some of the world's most notable companies. An informative read for anyone involved in leadership development. * Carolyn Fairbairn, Director-General, CBI *
Good leadership takes courage and so does good leadership development. A well-written and extensively researched book that shows how HR must take bold people decisions to develop the next generation of leaders. Highlights the importance of diversity and inclusion throughout, and rightly so. * Baroness Mary Goudie, House of Lords, UK *
Ines has written an excellent step-by-step guide on how companies should be thinking about and executing long-term development plans for their top talent. It is well laid out and easy to read: full of good examples of best practice and pitfalls to avoid. Essential reading for senior management, HR practitioners, as well as young leaders thinking about their own career trajectories * Dr. George Olcott, Guest Professor, Faculty of Business and Commerce, Keio University, Japan *
It is no longer about picking winners in the old school sense, but how we nurture outliers and make them succeed. This book could not have come at a better time where we need less promises and more strategy on the topic of diversity (age, gender, ethnicity). Companies may say they are committed to change and Ines provides a specific strategy on how to implement change and what that actually means for both the organization and the individual. * Pauline Wray, MD, Asia Head, Expand Research and Global Lead for BCG FinTech Control Tower *
