Abstract

Discusses attributes of success in executive development, factors driving the process and the changing nature of management work as organization restructuring occurs. Attention is given to barriers to development. Identifies core elements of an executive development strategy and concludes that executive development should be regarded as a process and not an event. While these issues are universally important, they have particular meaning to the “new” South Africa. Factors such as diversity management and employment equity are important in the executive development process.
