Features of Executive Development

It is a planned effort to improve executives ability to handle a variety of


assignments.

It is not a one-shot deal, but a continuous, ongoing activity.

It aims at improving the total personality of an executive.

It aims at meeting future needs unlike training, which seeks to meet


current needs.

It is a long-term process, as managers take time to acquire and


improve their capabilities.

It is proactive in nature as it focuses attention on the present as well as


future requirements of both the organisation and the individual.
