Organisations have always needed leaders who are good at recognising emerging challenges and inspiring organisational responses. That need is intensifying today as leaders confront, among other things, digitisation, the surging power of data as a competitive weapon, and the ability of artificial intelligence to automate the workplace and enhance business performance. Unfortunately, there is overwhelming evidence that the plethora of services, books, articles, seminars, conferences, and TED-like talks purporting to have the answers – a global industry estimated to be worth more than USD 50 billion – are delivering disappointing results. In this workshop, I will discuss key challenges in leadership development and what L&D Leaders can do to deliver high impact leadership development programmes.
