Making the Business Case
for Leadership Development
How to get your C-Suite on Board with Leadership Development
Research proves that leadership development is the number one factor in boosting employee engagement. There is a strong and indisputable correlation between higher levels of employee engagement and leaders who engage in 30 discrete behaviors (from the Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership® developed by Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner). Increasing the frequency in even one of these behaviors can make a double digit improvement in employee engagement levels.
In other words, leaders are not the only ones who benefit from leadership development. The people they manage, the organization as a whole, and even customers benefit when leaders and managers participate in a leadership development program and learn about the 30 behaviors that boost leadership effectiveness.
