Leadership Development - Perk, or Necessity?
Bad Management Costs Companies Far More Than Coaching
Does
Nothing personal, but the underlying rationale really isn't about
you, per se. Sure you benefit from it. But that's just a happy byproduct, at best. The
real reason why (most?) companies invest in Leadership Development for their executives is because
doing so significantly reduces the company's exposure to
unnecessary risks. Consider:
-
Investing in Leadership Development helps reduce
the frequency and impact of Bad Management - Anyone who's ever
worked for a lousy boss already knows what this is about
without having to read another word.
-
Investing in Leadership Development helps reduce
unwanted executive turnover - Given a choice, would you rather work
for a company that continually encourages you to learn and grow, or one that
refuses to let you try anything new or different?
-
Investing in Leadership Development helps reduce
unwanted operative turnover - Anyone who's ever
walked away from a good job because the boss just became
too toxic knows what this is about, too!
So what does this mean for you?
-
It could be the basis of a
compelling argument to authorize the funding for your
continued professional growth and development.
-
It could help justify approval to
work, 1-on-1, with an executive coach or leadership
consultant instead of attending yet another
meaningless seminar or training program.
-
It could be used to demonstrate
how investing in your continued Leadership Development
is not just a nice thing to do, but it's a savvy
and risk-reducing business decision, as well.
