Leaders as Teachers

Every business understands the value of connecting its top leaders to other established and high-potential leaders in the organization. Becton, Dickinson and Company (BD), a $6.5 billion medical technology company with 28,000 employees, had its leaders make this vital connection in a unique and highly effective way -- through teaching.

 

Leaders as Teachers chronicles BD's eight-year journey to create and deploy a leadership development program that relied on all top leaders, even its CEO, to train other leaders. The initiative, led by author Edward Betof, BD's vice president and chief learning officer, produced dramatic results. In addition to a compelling story of change, Leaders as Teachers offers a road map for other organizations wishing to implement and benefit from BD's experience. The book provides all the tools needed for the transition to leaders as teachers.
