Leadership Development

“The single biggest way to impact an organization is to focus on leadership development. There is almost no limit to the potential of an organization that recruits good people, raises them as leaders, and continually develops them.” - John Maxwell

Why is leadership development vital?

Because when done right, it unquestionably delivers impact. A leadership development plan is an essential tool to ensure that your organization has a strong pipeline of future leaders.

Creating a solid leadership development plan helps outline detailed steps to identify and nurture the next generation of leaders within your organization.

Steps to Developing a good leadership development program:

  1. Selecting the right participants - Carefully evaluate your employees' past and future potential. You can also start from the topmost leader and stream leadership development down.

  2. Identifying individual leadership development needs - Everyone is unique. Therefore, everyone has their own development needs. So, teaching everyone the same leadership skills will not work.

  3. Setting up the right metrics for a progress tracker - Most companies track by the number of applicants, number of training programs, percentage of employees covered, post-program evaluation by participants, etc.

Keep in mind that the effectiveness of any program is actual application at work and real behavior change in the leader.

Now that you know how to develop a good leadership program, be sure you’re investing in your people.
