Recruiting, Retaining, and Transforming Talent for Exponential Business Growth

What is a Leadership Readiness Map?

A Leadership Readiness Map is a tool that helps a company understand which leaders are ready for more responsibility, which leaders need development, and which capabilities are missing from the leadership bench. It gives the leadership team a practical view of readiness across current leaders and rising talent.

Strategic Talent Partners uses the Leadership Readiness Map as part of its Talent Strategy and Succession Planning process. After evaluating leaders through assessment tools, structured interviews, and readiness criteria, STP helps companies map readiness so they can make better decisions about development, succession, retention, and future hiring needs.
