We specialize in the design and the implementation of corporate-wide high potential development processes which have received best practice recognition. We partner with you to customize an end-to-end process for developing your high potential leadership talent from CEO Sponsored Action Learning Teams to Shadow Cabinets to long-term and short-term stretch assignments to mentoring, learning circles, symposiums and more. We invite you to choose from an array of over 20 best practices in developing future executives. Well build the process, leaders guides and tools to sustain the programs long after we are gone. We also possess the capability and experience in implementing these high potential accelerated development processes to deliver a turnkey solution if needed.

The bottom line: The Executive Edge, Inc.s leading edge coaching process provides invaluable insights combined with tangible development recommendations taken from the most current research on what it takes to develop executive talent and meet the challenges faced today. Mentoring Programs The reason many mentoring programs fail is two-fold: 1)Mentors often have positive intentions but do not have clear understanding of why the were chosen and the role they can play in a mentor relationship and 2) The organization lacks the necessary tools and basic framework to enable leaders to be successful in this partnership. We work with you to tailor tools and processes to complement your existing development processes. We can customize tools to ensure a successful launch of mentor relationships, foster rich dialogues throughout the mentor process and educate the mentors/mentees to recognize and act upon opportunities for professional growth.

We will build the end-to-end process to ensure the success of these leaders. Our consultants will work with you in the selection of the team members, identification of the business challenge, launch of the teams, coaching & feedback to individual members, dry-run presentations to the final recommendations made to the executive team. Each leader will feel supported every step of the process to ensure maximum learning as a result of this experience.

Identifying High Potential Employees

The process of identifying high potential employees and developing those employees to take on critical roles in the future is vital to organizational competitiveness. Identification and development are two separate concepts. Although both concepts are important, organizations would be wise to put particular emphasis on how they go about identifying high potential employees. The emphasis on identification is imperative because not all employees are equal. Some employees perform better than others, some have more knowledge, and some are just more motivated. It is the properassessment of these individual differences between employees that should be the foundation of any succession management or leadership development program. An organization should be able to classify employees based on their potential to succeed at higher levels or in critical roles within the organization. This process of classification is necessary in order to fully understand the extent of employee development needs. In other words, identification drives development. There is a wide range of assessment procedures organizations employ to identify high potential talent. These assessment procedures are listed in order of increasing level of sophistication:

The Buddy Approach: This approach is characterized by people with decision-making authority identifying their buddies as high potential.

The Tenure Approach:

This approach is characterized by promoting or identifying employees that have been with the company the longest. The general theory is that the person has paid his or her dues and therefore should be moved into a critical role. Another rationalization for this approach is that the employee, because of his/her longevity with the company, must have acquired the appropriate knowledge,skill and ability to be successful in a more critical role. The Manager Appraisal Approach: This approach is characterized by having a manager identify a subordinate for promotion or special development based on the managers independent judgment of what high potential means. In this approach, managers are usually left to their own devices to develop criteria from which they base their decisions. The Decision-Makers Consensus Approach: This approach is characterized by decision-makers meeting as a group to discuss employee suitability for promotion or special development. Although better than the previous approaches, there is usually little in the way of criteria to help articulate what is meant by potential. This can result in unproductive or inaccurate decisions. The Criteria Based Approach: This approach is characterized by having criteria that articulate how a high potential employee behaves. Decision-makers are required to use these criteria to identify talent and to justify their choices. Typically, assessment tools are used to help measure the criteria. Examples of such tools are multi-rater feedback (360degree) and assessment centers. Identifying High Potential Criteria: Criteria refer to qualities, characteristics, skills, and abilities that an individual needs to have or exhibit to successfully perform the requirements of a given position. To begin the process of identifying high potential criteria, a series of questions should be asked.

What does the company look like now? What will it look like in two, three, and four years from now? What is the companys strategy? What will it take to execute that strategy from a talent perspective? What positions will be critical in the future? What will it take to operate in these positions? What type of people do we want in these positions? What experience will they need? Why? What knowledge will they need to possess? Why? What behaviors or competencies will they need to exhibit? Why? Generally, the answers to the questions should produce high level criteria needed to be successful in a given position or group of target positions. For example, the need to be strategic, adaptable, customer focused, etc. The high level criteria will serve as the framework for the next step in the process.

Making High Potential Criteria Measurable Once high level criteria have been identified the next step is to make it measurable. At this stage, it behooves an organization to have a professional facilitate this process in order to elicit the level of clarity needed to make the criteria measurable. For example, to make the criterion of strategic ability measurable the organization needs to begin by asking the following types of questions: What does a strategic person do? How do you know if a person is strategic or not? What observable actions indicate that a person is strategic? Creating Tools to Measure High Potential Criteria If an organization is going to go through the exercise of creating its own custom criteria, which is highly recommended, then it should also look to develop custom tools to measure the criteria. During this step, it is very important that an organization contact professional help as the construction of proper measurement tools is a technical process that is beyond the scope of this article. Additionally, depending on how the measurement tools will be used there may be legal ramifications that need to be considered. One of the most useful tools in measuring high potential criteria is multirater assessments (360-degree). Multirater assessments are used to gather information on a variety of observable behaviors from multiple sources (e.g., peers, subordinates, supervisors, customers, etc.). These assessments can be a great source of information because they provide a more complete picture of an individual. Other examples of measurement tools include performance tests or assessment centers. Performance tests and assessment centers are much different from multi-rater assessments in that they are role play exercises of scenarios or hypothetical situations that an employee is likely to face. The role play exercises are highly structured and measure criteria by observing how an employee behaves when handling certain situations. For example, an employee might be asked to role play a situation in which he/she must deal with an angry or upset customer. The effectiveness of the employees behavior in handling the situation are observed and rated by trained individuals.
