š¤š¤ What would be the impact on productivity in your organisation if 80% of your leadership team had no relevant experience?
šÆ In the UK 4 out of 5 people who get promoted to managers have never had management or leadership training.
šÆ This is one of the biggest contributors to UK's lower productivity which lags behind many other countries.
š¤š¤ What would be the impact on loyalty and moral of your employees if they rated their manager as ineffective?
šÆ Itās highly likely that half of these employees are going to leave your organisation in the next year because they are not motivated or inspired and see no future with your organisation.
šÆ Imagine the disruption and cost associated with having to replace these employees.
š¤š¤ How much would you be willing to invest in building strong management and leadership behaviours to increase business performance by 25%?
šÆ Organisations that invest in management and leadership development programmes see on average a 23% increase in organisational performance and a 32% increase in people performance ā according to the Chartered Management Institute.
šÆ With development expect to see your leaders communicate with greater impact, coach and develop the careers of those in their teams, motivate and inspire their teams to step out of their comfort zone and deal with bad behaviours and speak up against toxic cultures.
šš What tips have I got to help you develop and grow your teams?
šÆ Empower Young Talent: Give young people in your organisation responsibility as soon as possible. Coach them how to manage and lead teams. This will have a powerful impact on moral and the culture in your organisation.
šÆ Be Consistent: Create values and principles which everyone in your organisation lives by, in particular the leadership team, creating a culture with strong leadership behaviours.
šÆ Be Relevant: Your training and development should be relevant to your business ā apply lessons, skills, use cases and experience from your market to embed learnings.
šÆ Foster Collaboration & Accountability: Encourage your teams to continue to share their knowledge and best practice going forward, create communities and hold each other accountable for positive changes they want to lead.
