You’ve probably seen it happen. A rising star is tapped for new responsibilities and all goes smoothly—at first. But soon this talented individual starts underperforming or even resigns. In this Harvard Business Review article, learn more about the complex struggles that plague talented people when they’re identified as future leaders. Exploring the roots of this "talent curse," the authors provide practical tips that help high-potentials break the curse and grow as leaders while enabling companies to build critical leadership capacity.
To succeed at higher levels of responsibility, business leaders must be able to grasp the big picture, craft competitive strategies, and align all parts of the organization to achieve strategic goals. The General Management Program is an intensive, modular learning experience designed to accelerate leadership growth. Working with Harvard Business School faculty, a personal coach, and peers from around the world, participants will refine their personal leadership approach while building their knowledge of a wide range of business functions, global trends, and strategic challenges. Carefully designed individual projects will help them address critical challenges facing their company and prepare them for the next step in their career. Participants emerge transformed—capable cross-functional leaders who can ask the right questions, diagnose problems, and take action to position their business for strategic success.
