He handed power to a first handpicked successor Abdullah Badawi. When this successor did not perform to his satisfaction, her replaced him with the current PM Najib. Again he is unhappy with the performance of his own handpicked successor. The subheading of the Financial Times article reads, &#8220;Once one of the world&#8217;s most controversial leaders, the 91-year-old is spending his retirement trying to overthrow his successors&#8221;.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #1d2129; font-family: Century Gothic; font-size: 12pt;\">This is a case in point of when succession planning goes wrong.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #1d2129; font-family: Century Gothic; font-size: 12pt;\">What could have gone wrong?

This is what is known as <strong>Leadership Resource Development<\/strong>.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #1d2129; font-family: Century Gothic; font-size: 12pt;\">Many times, leaders do not take time to cultivate or develop a particular value system [honesty, integrity, transparency, humility] into their chosen successor. It takes TIME and a lot of WORK to cultivate, develop or program values into successors or mentees.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #1d2129; font-family: Century Gothic; font-size: 12pt;\">People WILL NOT follow you, your example and manifest your value system just because you honor them with positions and possessions. For this to transpire, it takes deliberate discipleship, training, capacity building a.k.a cultivation. The mind is a farm and needs cultivation.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"color: #1d2129; font-family: Century Gothic; font-size: 12pt;\">While doing this, guard against pretense. When persons want positions bad enough, they will pretend. Be sagacious in your evaluation of a mentees level of absorption and development.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-family: Century Gothic; font-size: 12pt;\"><span style=\"color: #1d2129;\">NB: This is not to say I agree with any of the characters in linked article.
