Development of Executive Success.

Abstract

Executive development and success are analyzed from two different vantage points. Executive effectiveness is considered first from the traditional view of management which is charged with the responsibility of ensuring the future of the organization by filling key positions with competent executives. Executive effectiveness then is reconsidered through the eyes of an individual who wants to rise through the hierarchy and attain executive success for himself. This effort is an attempt to answer three fundamental questions. First, what does an executive do and what function does he perform. Second, what qualities represent the difference between a successful executive and a mediocre one. Finally, how can an individual use this knowledge to achieve personal executive success.
