<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>After a formal feedback experience individuals are often enthusiastic about pursuing their development goals but then hesitate because they do not know where to begin. This guidebook shows three strategies that are necessary in any intentional effort to grow: seek challenging assignments, seek training for targeted skills, and seek developmental relationships. Practical advice is given on how to choose the right assignments, identify specific skills that need improving, and establish relationships that will provide ongoing support and encouragement.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>This series of guidebooks draws on the practical knowledge that the <b>Center for Creative Leadership (CCL)</b> has generated, since its inception in 1970, through its research and educational activity conducted in partnership with hundreds of thousands of managers and executives. Much of this knowledge is shared-in a way that is distinct from the typical university department, professional association, or consultancy. CCL is not simply a collection of individual experts, although the individual credentials of its staff are impressive; rather it is a community, with its members holding certain principles in common and working together to understand and generate practical responses to today's leadership and organizational challenges.<br /> The purpose of the series is to provide managers with specific advice on how to complete a developmental task or solve a leadership challenge. In doing that, the series carries out CCL's mission to advance the understanding, practice, and development of leadership for the benefit of society worldwide. <p><b>Cynthia D. McCauley</b> is vice president of New Initiatives at CCL. Her work has focused on leadership development through 360-degree feedback, job assignments, and developmental relationships. She has coauthored two of CCL's management feedback instruments, Benchmarks(R) and the Job Challenge Profile. McCauley has published widely, including coediting <i>The Center for Creative Leadership Handbook of Leadership Development</i> (Jossey-Bass, 1998) and coauthoring <i>Should 360-degree Feedback Be Used Only for Developmental Purposes?</i> (CCL, 1997). She holds a Ph.D. in industrial/organizational psychology from the University of Georgia.</p> <p><b>Jennifer W. Martineau</b> is a research scientist and manager of the Evaluation Services function at CCL. Her research focuses on the impact of leadership development interventions on individuals, groups or teams, and organizations.
