1. The Future of Leadership Training
It is real easy to neglect leadership training and feel that it has no
bearing on your organization’s future. Unfortunately leadership
development efforts that you ignore could be the key to the future of
your organization.
Without a cadre of people who understand your organization’s mission
and are dedicated to leading it into the future your organization will
not survive. More importantly those future leaders need the tools to
ensure your organization’s survival. They need to be able to motivate,
discipline, communicate with and direct those under them.
They need the tools necessary to implement programs and carry out
strategies. They also need to know how to create strategies and to
make them a reality. They need to be aware of the latest techniques
such as SMART goals and how they really work.
Therefore you need a real leadership training effort as the core of
your organization’s planning for the future. You need people who can
create and design the plans and more importantly effectively
implement those plans.
Planning is one skill that has to be the focus of leadership training.
Communication is another skill. An effective leader has to be able to
communicate with those under her. She has to be able to tell them
what the plans are and why the plans are important.
Even though plans often fail, planning is vital to an organization’s
success because it helps people think about processes and strategies
and the strategies necessary to their success. Strategy is another vital
component of leadership your people need to understand it in order to
succeed.
No organization will be able to survey or achieve its goals without a
basic strategy. No strategy will work unless it is consistent with the
organization’s basic mission and values. No strategy can become a
reality without effective plans to back it up.
None of this is possible without leaders that understand how to create
and implement these things. Training then is vital if your organization
wants to survey.
