6CIOReview | | OCTOBER 2020Job roles today are witnessing a sea of change, due to the ongoing pandemic. Additionally, we are also faced with a digitally influenced shrinking of the globe, and cultural diversity, which used to be an exception, is now a norm. Markets are more becoming volatile, uncertain, and ambiguous, and competency-based. In contrast, frameworks-based models are slowly fading away, especially at the leadership layer, as they no longer hold relevance to these new dynamics. All of this indicates the need for a very agile approach to developing leadership abilities in the future.The impact of the external changes is uniquely affecting companies making organizational leadership development a very contextual event or journey. A lot more emphasis would be towards personalized development techniques, like coaching, where coaching objectives will be decided not so much by the candidate, but more by the manager, and aligned to the business strategy. The need to follow a more adaptive and versatile form of leadership will soon be the way to go. Thus, leadership development companies would need to offer a range of services, covering research about the problem/opportunity, diagnosis about the organizational need and relevance to strategy, design using facilitation and coaching practices, delivery using professional facilitators and coaches, and demonstrating the intervention's business impact. Now, companies must ensure they are ready to cope with rapidly changing customer demands and external economic shocks if they wish to stay one step ahead of their competitors in the years to come. To help organizations, our editorial team has selected some of the most exceptional leadership development companies you should be looking for in 2020.Let us know your thoughts!EditorialChanging Times: Call for New MindsetCopyright © 2020 ValleyMedia, Inc.
