This is perhaps the best book ever published in the field of Leadership development. We have all heard that Leadership is Learning by doing. This CCL explains what makes an assignment developmental. It puts the findings of the CCL in one book and make it available to the public. The book explains clearly the benefits and impacts of Feedback Intensive Programs, Coaching and Developmental Assignments. If you are in the field of leadership or talen development and need indepth understanding on designing such process then this is the book.
An excellent starting point

This is an excellent overview on leadership development and is a great starting point for further reading. Anyone who's taken a course at CCL will recognize the techniques referred to in the first half of the book especially the description of Feedback Intensive Programs.Keep in mind that this is an overview and no topic is dealt with in great detail. This should provide a good foundation for exploring topics in more detail. I found the section on cross cultural differences very enlightening and am encouraged to read more on the topic.This is not just for OD professionals but for anyone with an interest in leadership.
Truly a "must have" for any HRD professional.

Perhaps the most distinguishable characteristic of the "Handbook" is its integration of complex, conceptual material with applied practical examples and illustrations. It is truly a "must have" for any human resource development professional. (permission granted by the Asheville Citizen-Times)
A top-notch book for the OD practitioner.

The authors of this impressive work examine six strategies for leadership development, along with illustrations of how each is used in practice. The strategies are: 360 feedback; feedback intensive programs; skill-based training; job assignments; developmental relationships; and hardships. They show how to use a systems approach, enhance ability to learn, and to evaluate leadership development initiatives. Other chapters are devoted to leadership growth for women and people of color, cross cultural issues, and the development of leaders for global roles. A top-notch book for the OD practitioner.
