BIG LEADERSHIP: How to Develop Leaders with Competence, Confidence and Credibility.

Leaders need help to develop the skills that will take them to their next level. Being a subject matter expert, high-performing team member, or doing what you've always done is not enough.

It's simply not good business to promote a leader and then fail to develop them. There’s more to being the leader than just being successful in your old role. Leading a team?needs more and different capabilities, tools, processes, and approaches.

I continue to observe many organisations which are not taking enough responsibility for setting new leaders up for success. They need to provide the support and development that equips new managers with the additional skills they need to navigate their new role of team leader effectively.

Yet many organisations are not offering the support their leaders need.

It's time to bridge the gap.

Here are a few of the concerning statistics on this topic:

• 60% of new leaders fail in the first year?[1]
• 87 % of first-time leaders feel frustrated, anxious, and uncertain about their new role?[2]
• 60% of leaders say they never received training when transitioning into their first leadership role?[3]
• 50% of managers in organisations are ineffective?[4]
