- Although leadership development is consistently identified as a top priority for organizations, challenges in measuring its effectiveness make it difficult to pinpoint what is working and what isn’t. This leads to wasted resources on programs that do not result in behavioral change and an overall frustration with leadership development capability.
- Organizations pour money into leadership development programs that are too general or do not sufficiently apply to their circumstances, making it difficult for leaders to apply learnings and improve performance.
