Let's make leadership development journeys work!

The way businesses and work has been organized has changed drastically in the last 10-20 years. Companies are more global than ever. Large parts of the workforce are now virtual, even more so since the lock downs have come into effect due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Internet and tech-based solutions not only enable specific parts of one’s work life like cloud storage and the one-off video call, but for many is the only medium of work (creating outputs, communication, collaboration - everything). Thus, it has become imperative to invest in and enable development for employees at all levels of the organization, to prepare them for the ever-changing business imperatives.

By looking at the current results you can diagnose what elements are missing and/or need improvement.

Being Strategic - A creative pursuit or a form-filling exercise?

Strong strategic leaders sustain value creation and monetization across all four nodes in an organization. For example, while one leader might think of creating value in terms of ‘experience’ another might think in terms of ‘capital’. When leaders tap into the signals from the customer and the shifting landscape and feed them back into the four nodes of business, they become arbiters of value.

A culture so rich, that you can have it for tea!

The first time one of us heard ‘if you can tell it, you can sell it’ at IKEA, was during a food tasting session before it opened its first Order and Collection Point (OCP) in Scotland. What is so unique about it, you might wonder?

Pervasive among large organizations today, in a study of nearly 700 large companies, it was found that more than 80% published an official set of corporate values on their website.
