Leadership Foundations Workshop

Franklin Covey UK
Banbury, Oxfordshire, United Kingdom

Course Format: Classroom | E-learning | Virtual Class | Online | On-site | Blended | Self-paced

Course Description:

'' As the current generation of leaders marches toward retirement, many organisations are already finding it difficult to find qualified replacements. The challenge lies in both the numbers and experience; there simply aren’t as many workers as will be needed to fill vacated leadership slots, and those potential managers who are available will only bring 5-10 years experience with them.

One of the ways organisations are preparing for this impending leadership crisis is to prepare existing frontline employees to take on larger roles as they grow with the organisation. This approach not only “future proofs�against a mass exit of experienced leadership, it gives organisations the ability to retain vital institutional knowledge, as well as attract and retain high-potential employees.

The Four Chronic Leadership Problems
As we transition from the Industrial Age to the Knowledge Age, organisations today face four chronic leadership problems.

Trust in leaders in historic lows. Just when the payoff for trust was never higher, we have wary customers, hesitant partners, a cynical public, and suspicious employees.
Strategic uncertainty. Challenges that once took years to materialise now arise overnight; competitive advantages vanish, governments vie for capital and talent �and hyper-paced technological change means that someone on the other side of the world just turned your business on its head.
An ominous shortage of experienced leadership. In some countries, throngs of leaders are retiring. And other rapidly-growing countries lack qualified leaders. The result? Inconsistent execution, weak decisions, missed opportunities, and unfulfilled employees.
The war for talent. Just when the right idea can change an industry, knowledge and creativity are at a premium �and totally mobile. People no longer satisfied with just showing up they want to make a difference. The best people hire their employers, not the other way around. And the contribution they can make is more motivating than their pay cheque.
“Leadership is not something that you learn once and for all. It is an ever-evolving pattern of skills, talents, and ideas that grow and change as you do."
- Sheila Murray Bethel
