4 Questions to Ask Before Implementing Your,
In-house Leadership Development Program
For any organization, developing the leadership pipeline is critical for sustained growth and
profitability. Hence the stakes are high, and the potential payoff is enormous. The key is to follow a
systematic approach to leadership development that is aligned with an organization’s strategy, and
is also a proper fit for its culture. An effective leadership development system is the competitive
advantage in a fast changing business environment today.
Leadership development can and does take years. According to leadership consultant, Rich Rosier,
there are four strategic questions that need to be asked before undertaking a leadership
development initiative in any organization
1. What capabilities will our leaders need to have in three to five years?
2. What capabilities do our leaders currently have? What gaps do we need to fill between our
current capabilities and those required in the future?
3. What do we need to do to develop our leaders?
4. How do the components and processes of our overall human resource (HR) system need to
be aligned with our leadership development system for maximum return on investment?
Based on these questions, those who are designing a leadership development system need to:
1. Identify future leadership requirements
2. Assess current leadership capabilities to identify the gaps
3. Build and/or reconfigure the tools, activities, and processes of leadership development,
talent management, and performance and succession management in order to develop the
necessary leadership capability for the future.
