There is a crisis in leadership. Leadership has become a critical source of competitive advantage in today’s economy—it is leaders who shape their organizations, build teams, drive results, and inspire employees to deliver value—but there is a wide gap in many companies between leadership practices and results.
In survey after survey, senior executives identify leadership as a top business issue, but have little confidence in their organizations’ actual leadership ability. This leadership gap is preventing organizations from effectively building the leadership capacity they need to succeed in changing business environments, today and in the future.
What is especially alarming about the leadership gap is that, despite widespread investments in management and leadership education, companies still are not able to close this gap. Building leadership capacity is not about two-week executive development courses or hiring a charismatic CEO. It is about embedding the value of leadership within the culture and developing leaders at all levels in the organization for a sustainable competitive advantage.
