DELRAY BEACH, Fla., Nov. 6, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Each year, most organizations invest more time and money trying to unlock the full potential of their leaders to improve business outcomes, usually with disappointing results. The question, "What makes a great leader?" is often difficult to understand and address.
Brandon Hall Group's latest research showed that 68% of organizations consider leadership development essential or critical to their business strategies, while only 20% believe their leadership development program has a significantly positive impact on business results.
"The real questions we must answer is why leadership development never seems to improve and what needs to change to drive better outcomes," said Claude Werder, Vice President and Principal HCM Analyst.
"Leadership development is vitally important and we want to be part of the solution by providing new frameworks and tools," said Mike Cooke, CEO of Brandon Hall Group.
Brandon Hall Group is conducting a new leadership development study and seeks input from HCM managers and other business leaders about what works and what needs to change. The survey questions include:
- Is leadership development focused on mastery of foundational skills? If not, why not?
- Is leadership development focused on competencies that reflect business objectives? If not, why not?
- Does your organization ensure personal and professional goals of high-potentials line up with business culture and objectives? If not, why not?
- Do organizations measure leadership development in ways that show whether behaviors are changing? If not, why not?
The survey takes less than ten minutes to complete. Participants who finish the survey and provide their email address will receive a summary report of research results upon publication and instant access to Brandon Hall Group's exclusive assessment tool, Assessing the Maturity of Your Leadership Development Program.
