How can you provide leadership development solutions for managers with tight schedules?

Developing people management skills is an eternal challenge for most of the companies. Leadership trainings are hard to organize, costly and organizations do not have much information about their efficiency.

Trainings revolve around a false assumption: if people understand it, they do it. We all experience it is not true. However there is an innovative way to help managers with tight schedules to train their leadership skills.

There is no company who don’t want to retain employees and increase their engagement level. They recognize the competitive advantage that leaders can add to motivate and keep the best workforce in the company. However, providing them one or two trainings in a year will not bring the desired success. Skills development is the result of longer-term, regular practice supported by follow-up.

Why leadership development is so decisive nowadays?

Towers Watson or Gallup concluded in their surveys about employee engagement that many of the key factors that determine workplace engagement are related to people management. It is the leaders of the team who empower individuals and create the opportunity for them to excel, or not. It is the leaders who help articulate a compelling and relevant vision. It is the leaders who demonstrate praise-worthy values, or not.

Lajhárok és gazellák a munka világában

Még 2016-ban írtam egy cikket itt a Tudatos Vezetés blogon, egy 600 ezer fős nagymintás kutatás alapján arról, hogy a tudásmunkások körében a teljesítmény nem haranggörbe szerint oszlik el, hanem hatványfüggvénynek megfelelően. Ennek az a jelentősége, hogy a felső 5% hozza az összteljesítmény negyedét, a top 1% pedig az átlagnál tízszer eredményesebb. Azaz van egy szűk réteg, aki tényleg kiemelkedő, összesen legfeljebb 20%, aki még egész jó, a többiek teljesítménye ehhez képest igen szerény. Ugyanezt igazolták vissza a Google saját kutatásai is, ahol vagy kétszázezren dolgoznak, és nem szűkölködnek az adatfeldolgozási és elemzési technológiában és erőforrásokban.

The willpower trap

When we see others achieve their desires, their goals, we often admire their character or their determination they have been blessed with. We may think that if we are really committed to do something, we will succeed. Unfortunately, however, we oversimplify the nature of change when we conclude that it is only through willpower that we can achieve the goal we set out to achieve. If we fail to lose weight, can’t resist sweets or regularly work late from home, or have a notorious shopping compulsion, we simply say we couldn’t resist. But it’s too easy. What if there are other things beyond willpower that play a role in our failures or even our successes?
