| | December 20196CIOReviewToday's marketplace is highly competitive and resource-strapped, and to survive in such an environment forwards thinking executives need to reimage their approach towards hiring talented employees. The new millennium has brought along with it new rules of engagement and disruption is the new normalcy. Companies can no longer afford the luxury of putting their employees through rigorous year-long training programs or follow a linear path to leadership. The need of the hour is digitally savvy leaders who are strategic, agile, data-driven, and resilient. Embracing the diversity in your leadership team can help unleash the full potential of a workforce that truly understands and reflects your customer. A diverse leadership set makes a business more innovative and should be seen as a competitive edge for organizations as it produces fresher and more creative ideas. Business leaders must also keep a check on the emotional well being of their team. Employees often find it challenging to open up to HR departments about their mental health, and leadership executives must step in to fill this gap. Leaders who are emotionally available and more engaged with their teams inspire higher operational efficiency and increased performance among employees. This can help address concerns of high absenteeism, dissatisfaction, and job-hopping associated with burnouts. Organizations are continually looking to reduce overhead office costs, and hiring remote teams is a very suitable way to do the same. Although this helps in harnessing a more comprehensive range of talent and productivity, it becomes difficult to incorporate transparency and accountability within the team. The culture of accountability revolves around leadership, and managers who hold themselves accountable often set the bar for others to follow in an organization. In this edition of Leadership Development, we have shortlisted some of the most promising leadership training companies, to help you navigate through the rapidly growing and varied landscape of leadership development.
