Solving the Puzzle of Leadership Potential 


Evidence suggests that leadership pipelines are more unstable than ever. A worrying 58% of organisations report a significant shortage of leaders for key positions and almost a third are unsure that their leaders have the skills required to take the business forwards.

Through our own research conducted with leading HR and Talent professionals and a review of published studies, we identified 4 common shortcomings with current approaches to identifying and developing potential:

1)  Equating current (or past) high performance with future capability

2)  Allowing biases, stereotypes, and assumptions to determine high potential talent pools

3) Assuming it’s all about the individual

4) Failing to support individuals to fulfill their potential

Download our latest eBook, to learn a sound understanding of leadership potential and why it is critical to strengthen leadership pipelines. Discover the growth and foundational elements of becoming a better leader.
