LEADERSHIP 


"LEADERSHIP ISN'T A TITLE, IT'S A BEHAVIOUR."


- Robin Sharma

Leadership is not a theory or a role, it is a practice. At the heart of leadership are critical tensions that are universal and dynamic. These often appear as paradoxes such as today vs tomorrow, control vs empowerment, performance vs people, and flexibility vs stability. At the heart of these is the recognition that leadership is contextual. The skills, methods and mindsets leaders choose to apply in order to enable collective performance should be considered relevant to the specific context and strategy they face.​

Whilst much has been invested in developing leadership as a critical enabler of organisational performance, results have not reflected the investment. A focus on the ‘select few’, the teaching of leadership theory rather than practice, and the inability to connect leadership to context are among the key reasons for this. As the rate of organisational change escalates, these barriers will become more costly and exposing to those who do not adapt and evolve their approach.​

DEFINING LEADERSHIP STRATEGY

Quality leadership assessment and diagnostics will highlight strengths and opportunities in your current leadership structures, and when measured against a proven leadership framework or strategy, will enable you to make informed decisions about priority areas of focus. A leadership strategy should be able to answer questions such as:


  • What individual and collective leadership capabilities are needed to deliver on our strategy?

    We can help you define and quantify the links between having the right leadership capability and the ability to deliiver on your orgainsational strategy.

  • What is our current leadership profile, and how is it helping or hindering our performance?

    We'll help you gather and leverage diagnotic and assessment data to define a current state leadership profile and understanding how that leaderhsip profile impacts on performance.

  • What combination of human and technical leadership capability is most important for our direction?

    Understanding the organisational strategy helps to define what mix of human and technical leadership capability is required to define leadership roles and responsibilities.

  • What aspects of leadership require prioritised focus, for now and in 3-5 years time?

    From understanding strategy and current state leaderhsip profile we can then helpy ou priortise a roadmap for developing your leadership strength.

  • How will we develop our critical leadership areas?

    From insights to action, we can  then help you develop and implement new or leveraging existing leadership development programs to build the capability required to support your organisations ongoing growth.

  • How will we know if our leadership development activity will have the intended impact?

    Of course understanding the impact of change means ongoing monitoring and iteration. We support our clients with regular leadership pulse check activities to track progress and impact. 


BUSINESS CRITICAL LEADERSHIP CAPABILITY

Over the last two years organisations have seen significant change in terms of the way they work and what that means for leadership within their organisation.


Challenges related to orgainsational change, specifically digital and customer experience transformation, hybrid and remote work, dealing with uncertainty and empowering teams have all changed the way organisations view what leadership is in their context.


Our PerformX Framework addresses these emerging critical leadership pathways, and more, to ensure that organisations of all sizes and all contexts can shape a leadership program that will enable their unique performance requirements.​


Through our reserach and client work, and by overlaying these leadership contexts with our PerformX Leadership Framework we've been able to identify a number of common leadership development programs designed to position organisations to thrive through these significant changes.
