Being seen as a high potential leader is essential to getting promoted and reaching an organisation's upper echelons, but most companies keep their top talent list a closely guarded secret. The assessment process they use to decide who is and isn't a future leader is an even greater mystery.

Leadership development experts Jay Conger and Allan Church draw upon decades of research and experience—designing high potential programs for hundreds of large, well-known global organisations, and managing and coaching thousands of developing leaders—to reveal a set of key differentiators: the five 'X factors' that set people apart across companies of all types.

Packed with examples of high potential leaders—from those on the verge of their first promotion to those only a step away from the C-suite—the authors provide detailed advice for cultivating and practising each 'X factor'.
