Why leadership development isn't developing our leaders
In a recent HBR article, author Deborah Rowland contends that many leadership development efforts fail as they set employees in a setting that is not representative of the type of leaders we need.
​
At the heart leadership development, a program or initiative needs to:
​
-
Be experiential
-
Influence participants’ “being,” not just their “doing”
-
Be placed into its wider, systemic context;
-
Be facilitated and guided by "sherpas" versus subject matter experts
​
Think twice before relaying on the tired classroom 'leadership development' class if you really expect results and want to create purposeful leaders.
