According to an article from the June 2, 2010 issue of Human Resource Executive, there's been a juggling of "top management challenges" from 2003 to 2010. While some issues remained key, a couple disappeared and new ones appeared.
Top 2003 Issues: Developing Potential Leaders, Reducing Costs, Selecting/Retaining Key Talent, Succession Planning, Creating an Engaged Workforce.
Top 2010 Issues: Creating an Engaged Workforce, Performance Management, Selecting/Retaining Key Talent, Managing Change, Reducing Costs
Comment: It's difficult to argue about these lists because all of these issues are important at any time -- for any organization. Having stated that, it's tough to see "Developing Potential Leaders" drop off the top five -- perhaps not unexpectedly because it represents the short term thinking we've seen for dccades. But there was hope that even in these economic times, organizations would realize the critical importance of developing and maintaining leadership talent.
