Leadership Development Programs

"It was a challenge to find leadership development programs with an approach to performance improvement that fit our unique culture and style. When we met with LSA we were surprised to discover their depth of expertise in the fields of motivation, developmental coaching and performance management and measurement. Specifically, we were pleasantly surprised to find a company that could seamlessly integrate those three components without our folks feeling like the intervention was forced. They understood what we were trying to accomplish, helped us clarify our objectives, create a solid, refreshing approach that quickly got us moving and engaged people at all levels.  As they began to implement, I was thoroughly impressed with how they listened and made adaptations focused on our needs and business objectives. Overall, I couldn’t be happier that we found a partner in LSA.”

"Having gone through many leadership development programs it can be said that my approach was reasonably skeptical at first. The analyst in me has concluded it was your method; which was almost conversational and so cleverly delivered I initially missed it, which is the mark of a great facilitator. In the program several leadership tools were employed, props such as the familiar movie clip, interaction games with peers; the text and reference guides, the analysis and profile of team members by peers and facilitated conversation to name a few. These tools, created scenario based, referenced learning that could be immediately translated into the work place. That coupled with the follow-on coaching sessions have been the key to the development. I am pleased to have attended the LSA Global Program and even more so feel privileged to have had you as teacher and coach.”

Today’s leaders are facing issues without precedent. Executives face complex, large-scale tasks with uncertain rules while often having to deal with other high-powered decision makers who are used to getting their way.  According to CEO's, the complexities confronting leaders are here to stay across seven key leadership challenges:

1. Improving strategic decisions, execution, and results
2. Aligning the workforce with a new strategic direction
3. Increasing organizational productivity and performance
4. Addressing significant past, present, or desired growth issues
5. Closing the gap between senior leaders and the next tier
6. Increasing leadership bench strength
7. Creating a coaching/performance culture to drive sustainable results

To succeed, leadership development programs must equip leaders with the knowledge and skills to impact business results. Yet, a recent Leadership Study found that 97% of organizations surveyed site significant leadership skill gaps.  A whopping 40% of those surveyed say that those leadership skill gaps are acute.

While focused leadership development can play a critical role, leadership skills alone will not fully address the revenue, profit, and competition challenges faced by leaders. Senior Leaders must address processes and structures to create a systemic leadership solution that:

• Engages employees in the accomplishment of critical business objectives and aligns people’s work with the intrinsic motivators that inspire their greatest contributions
• Aligns strategic goals throughout the organization by providing performance visibility at all levels and by supporting ongoing performance and development conversations
• Measures and reinforces organizational values, principles, and characteristics that drive a company’s success

These proven leadership development programs are spread across the 4 key areas listed below:

The right combination of skills and supporting structures will increase leaders’ ability to achieve an organization’s strategic objectives and produce measurable bottom-line impact.
