 Don't Leave Home Without It! Jun 19, 2007
By Jeff Thomson
I purchased this book in preparation for several Talent Reviews that I was due to plan and facilitate within my organization. To say the least, it was a tremendously helpful and useful resource every step of the way. Not only did it provide me step-by-step guidance on preparing all the details of my sessions, but the checklists and templates were instrumental in helping me facilitate effective and meaningful discussions for my clients.
I am now using this book to help me in preparing next steps following the Talent Reviews to ensure momentum is not lost. And once again, I am delighted by the insight and practical tools the book offers to support me in this process.
My favorite part of this book is its "just-in-time" nature. I have read it on planes, in the office, at home and at stop lights on my way to work. In fact, I've even had it by my side in the actual Talent Review discussions in case I need to refer to it during breaks.
I highly recommend this book to anyone involved with Talent Management and Succession Planning in their organization. It offers new insights, as well as reinforces concepts and ideas you've heard before, and packages it all in a practitioner-friendly way to ensure effective application.

Best One Out There! Apr 22, 2007
By Ilayne J. Geller
This book should be called "Everything You Ever Wanted to Know about Sucession Planning" or "Talent Management A-Z" given how complete it is. I am an independent consultant/trainer and I will be encouraging many of my clients to purchase this book as several have succession planning as a current critical need in their organization. What I particularly like about the book is how practical and detailed it is. The authors tell you not only what to do and how, but what not to do as well. Also, it is easy to find a specific topic you are interested in. This book is well worth the cost.

Succession Planning Made Simpler May 19, 2007
By Donna C. Coulson
[...] Naturally, I bought a copy because I've done my fair share of succession planning in large corporations. And I wanted to see the finished product.
I found this book very easy to use. It's a wonderful checklist against everything you've ever done in succession planning--or a great resource for an HR or OD professional going through a talent review (as they now call it!) and needing some guideposts. The format is easy to read--the authors are up-front about the issues you could confront and anticipate. A wonderful tool for the toolbox.

This book is an outstanding resource for any HR Business Partner and any business leader who understands the importance of identifying and building individual and organizational capability. The book contains very practical ideas and suggestions that will help an organization build maturity in talent management and succession planning. This is one of those books that all HR practitioners in HR Business Partner or Organizational Development roles should have!
