Workshop Description
Organizations spend millions each year both building and buying their leadership capability without an essential understanding of what leadership capabilities contribute to their differentiation, how they impact performance and results, or how to establish a program to systematically build/acquire the leaders they need. This Workshop will engage participants in identifying their organization's leadership needs, identifying the leadership capabilities that contribute directly to their organization's value proposition, and outlining how to build an effective program, that a) is not "throwing pre-programmed solutions" at a problem and b) they are able to sell to their senior management.
This highly interactive Workshop uses teamwork, case studies and a modified goal-based scenario approach.
Workshop Objectives
As a result of this program, participants will be able to:
