Abstract

As universal trends of globalisation suck companies into a worldwide marketplace vortex, organisations and leaders are being forced into redefining what it takes to succeed. Talented leaders therefore are an integral part of business strategies that underpin how organisations thrive in these environments. As a sheer matter of survival, both exogenous and endogenous factors now require companies to know what it is that they are looking for in their leaders, make full use of the talents of all leaders and be prepared to adjust their talent management strategy as environmental conditions change. Since leadership in organisations is now more complex than ever before, talented leaders can translate the company’s purpose and intent to people in teams, engaging their commitment to enhance business productivity. This chapter explores how organisations are making sense of these realities by presenting information from the literature and a recent case study from Australia.
