Don’t miss our happy hour recommendations at the end of these notes! Today we're dissecting why Leadership Development Programs fail. What we do know is that organizations spend an embarrassingly amount of money of leadership programs that: Never leave the starting blocksOnce it leaves the starting blocks, they don’t progress or fail to get adoptedAre shelved after new leadership takes over. What Shannon and Brent are debating today is - forget planning your next leadership program, it may be time to consider what your organizational culture is like and will it support the change needed to sustain the ongoing attention that true development requires. Leadership development programs fall short when they lack alignment with the organization's goals, fail to secure buy-in from management, or neglect to provide ongoing support and opportunities for applying learned skills on the job. What’s disheartening is that these shortcomings leave participants with valuable knowledge and the energy to put new behavioral tools into action. But without the necessary environment or reinforcement to translate that knowledge into lasting behavioral change, it’s wasted time and effort, leaving the participant feeling cheated and cynical. But before we dig into this, does the world need another measurement tool? Brent brings into the forefront a conversation about CFW (connected frontline worker) programs. Is it just another superpowered Learning Management System, or is this the new tool that will really connect L&D and operations?
