People who work exceptionally at their job typically get promoted to become managers. They go from needing technical skills to needing leadership skills, but rarely have the appropriate training to provide the right type of support to their team. The cost of poor leadership on companies is often overlooked, but research has shown that over 75% of those who leave their job voluntarily, do so because of poor leadership.
There is a skills gap that needs to be addressed by every company when employees transition to leadership roles. To support the development of emerging leaders, PerformHR offers a comprehensive leadership training program, specifically designed for new managers or those preparing to step into leadership roles.
Our Good to Great: Emerging Leaders program provides a strong foundation for navigating the challenges and opportunities of leadership. The program combines essential leadership development practices with insights from renowned sources, the key reference material being Good to Great by Jim Collins.
About the Book: Good to Great
Good to Great is a timeless guide for aspiring leaders and seasoned executives. Driven by a relentless quest for answers, author Jim Collins and his dedicated research team spent five years diving deep into companies to discover what actions made some more successful and longstanding than others. The study identified 28 companies known for their exceptional performance and compared them to their competitors to find the secret to their success.
Collins identified 3 key phases to drive success:
- Disciplined People: There is an importance to developing great leadership and a passionate, focused team. To have this, you need to focus on assembling the right individuals who are committed and genuinely believe in the vision of the organisation.
- Disciplined Thought Process: The second phase revolves around understanding the harsh realities of your business while building a framework of core values that fosters innovation and resilience.
- Disciplined Action: In this final phase, creating an environment of collaboration and autonomy allows teams to work cohesively toward a shared goal.
One of the key takeaways when it comes to exceptional companies, is the CEOs who lead them often possess a unique quality known as Level 5 Leadership: The perfect blend of humility and drive for results. PerformHR’s Good to Great: Emerging Leaders Program was built with Level 5 Leadership in mind, each module designed to truly unlock the Level 5 potential.
Why Leadership Training Matters
Why should you invest in leadership training? It’s simple. Better leaders, make better decisions, cultivate a better culture and drive better engagement. It’s not just about the bottom line, but it definitely helps that too.
Leadership training equips managers with fundamental skills like effective communication, strategic thinking, and conflict resolution. These skills are essential not only for personal success but also for fostering a high-performing team.
A well-structured training program can help new leaders build the confidence they need to make informed decisions and inspire their teams. Confidence in leadership fosters trust and encourages team members to engage, creating an environment where teams can thrive.
As we learned from Good to Great, the ability to lead through change is a hallmark of successful leaders. The right training can help prepare individuals to manage change smoothly, ensuring the organisation welcomes and thrive with the everchanging landscape of the workforce and technology. Great leaders know how to handle change and ensure their teams are focused and ready for it.
