"This book is well researched, covers the right ground, gives some
fascinating examples of great programs from all over the world and
extracts the learning from all of this. For me, it is the right
book at the right time."
*Elliott Masie, CEO and President, The Masie Centre*
"This book should be required reading for everyone in leadership
development... Anyone paying attention to its messages will deliver
better and more effective leadership programmes. Highly
recommended."
*Donald H Taylor, Chair, Learning and Performance Institute*
"This books is extremely well written, accessible and easy to
understand, whilst being very well researched. Nigel Paine has a
unique perspective on what makes leadership development effective
and it will help anyone interested or involved in this field."
*Dr Annie McKee, Senior Fellow at the University of Pennsylvania
and Director of the PennCLO Executive Doctoral Program*
"This book provides a solid foundation: a conceptual framework, and
a broad range of grounded case studies, sharing both design and
execution stories, tales of aspiration, tales of learning, tales of
failure. It is this willingness to ground the work in a succession
of practical examples that differentiates this for many of the
other leadership texts that adorn my bookshelf."
*Julian Stodd, Founder of Sea Salt Learning*
"Leadership development is a dangerous game: easy to commit to,
much harder to win. Nigel Paine's new book Building Leadership
Development Programmes plots a sensible course eschewing high
theory in favour of multiple, grounded, pragmatic and freely shared
case studies....It is this willingness to ground the work in a
succession of practical examples that differentiates it from many
of the other leadership texts that adorn my bookshelf."
*Inside Learning Technologies and Skills magazine*
"[Nigel's] books are very practical and immediately applicable"
*Adam Stedham, Senior Vice President, Learning Solutions at GP
Strategies Corporation*
"[It] was a pleasure to read....There were some examples that I
enjoyed in particular, such as the BP and the SeaSalt example,
mostly because they were new to me and provided a lot of insight in
how others approach big challenges.... I also LOVED chapter 11 (The
Shape of the Future). It gave me a completely different perspective
on the potential of AI and VR."
*Mirjam Neelen, Sr. Learning & Development Consultant at Learnovate
Centre*
"My team is presently in the process of designing a flagship
programme for scientific leaders...and I've no doubt it will be
incredibly useful in shaping our approach."
*Director, People Development and Operations at Broad Institute of
MIT and Harvard*
