As Avery Dennison grew from a collection of autonomous international businesses to a more integrated global corporation, the demands on leaders called for new capabilities. Several years of effort and a new leadership model led to an integrated, competency‐driven leadership development system, supported by powerful tools and processes—and hard‐earned wisdom about how to grow global leaders. The company draws talent from around the world, manages the talent pool as a global asset, and gives managers global experiences and responsibilities to help them develop the skills needed to become global leaders. It also holds managers deeply accountable for developing leaders, and measuring and rewarding their results. © 2007 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
