It’s very common in many industries but it seems cybersecurity leadership talent pipelines are not as well established.Developing leadership talent pipelines involves identifying and grooming potential leaders within an organization so that when a leadership position becomes vacant, there is a ready pool of internal candidates to choose from. Here are some steps to establish effective leadership talent pipelines:

  1. Identify critical roles within the organization that require strong leadership skills

  2. Define the competencies required for these roles

  3. Assess existing talent in the organization to identify potential candidates who possess these competencies

  4. Create development plans for individuals deemed to have leadership potential, with specific learning and training opportunities

  5. Provide coaching, mentoring, and ongoing feedback to employees who are part of the leadership talent pipeline

  6. Establish a succession planning process that outlines the steps for when a leadership position opens up

  7. Finally, ensure transparency and communication around the leadership talent pipeline so that employees know there are opportunities for growth and advancement within the organization.Interested in reaching out for helping your organization to develop a better approach?
