Executive turnover is on the rise and few companies have formal succession plans in place to ensure smooth leadership transitions. The result? Many executives feel unprepared and lacking in the support they need to lead their organization. Succession planning is not just about identifying the next in line for key positions. It's about systematically developing a strong pipeline of leaders who are ready to step into critical roles and make a positive impact on day one. A new article in TalentCulture lays out the case for putting leadership development at the center of your succession plan and explains how to design comprehensive learning and coaching programs that accelerate successor readiness. #successionplanning #successors #leadershipdevelopment #talentculture

Leaders are racing to keep up with the fast-moving field of generative AI. But what are the skills that leaders need to leverage AI in the right way for their business, their customers, and their employees? That was the topic of a panel discussion held at last month's Tech Summit Silicon Valley. ExecOnline CPO Julia F. Alexander was joined by University of California, Berkeley, Haas School of Business professor Thomas Y. Lee. Among other insights, Lee asserted that leaders don't need deep technical knowledge of how AI tools work in order to leverage them effectively. Instead, leaders need the skills to identify and implement innovation opportunities at their organization. Lee co-teaches Leading Innovative Change, a 6-week immersive learning program offered from ExecOnline in partnership with UC Berkeley Executive Education.
