Leadership Development Programs
Today’s leaders are facing issues without precedent. Executives face complex, large-scale tasks with uncertain rules while often having to deal with other high-powered decision makers who are used to getting their way.

According to executives, the complexities confronting leaders are here to stay across five key leadership challenges:

Improving strategic clarity, execution, and results
Aligning the workforce with a new strategic direction
Creating a high performance culture to drive the strategy forward in the short- and long-term
Attracting, developing, engaging, and retaining top talent at the right pace
Aligning talent strategies with business strategies and the organization’s culture

While focused leadership development programs can certainly play a critical role, leadership skills alone will not fully address the growth, performance, and competition challenges faced by leaders. Senior Leaders must also address strategies, cultures, processes, and structures to drive lasting change.

Our Organizational Alignment Research found that leaders who align their culture and talent with their strategy grow revenues 58% faster, are 72% more profitable, have 9-1-to-1 greater leadership effectiveness, and boost 16.8-to-1 higher employee engagement levels. Our leadership study found that the highest performing leaders:

Create strategic clarity by ensuring their teams clearly understand the strategic priorities, have no doubt that leadership is fully committed to the strategy, and are highly responsive to change.
Build high performance cultures by ensuring their teams clearly understand the desired culture, modeling the right behaviors, ensuring the timely flow of information, and making balanced short- and long- term decisions.
Differentiate top talent by hiring top talent, engaging and retaining high performers, providing unfettered access to resources, and responding positively to required changes.

Our research-backed, proven and systemic approach to leadership development helps leaders get everyone pointed in the right direction, shape the performance environment for everyone to perform at their peak, and build a differentiated workforce that creates a competitive advantage.
