WHY THE NEXT CEO SHOULD COME FROM WITHIN

摘要

For the most part, the merits of hiring a new CEO from within an organization rather than the outside have been based on anecdotal evidence. For example, familiarity with the organization's industry and culture are often advanced to support the case for looking within the ranks-even without data to support the reasoning. From now on, however, supporters of the "look within" camp will be able to offer hard evidence and data that show precisely why an internal candidate will outperform one brought in from the outside.
