One Size Won’t Fit All

In today’s complex business environment a single definition of leadership and leadership qualities is simply not possible — and it is highly unlikely that one individual will bring the mix of skills, experiences and attributes that will ensure success in all conditions.

Too often, efforts to grow and develop leaders ignore critical elements such as context and the person.

Context and leadership are intertwined. To understand leadership we need to understand the priorities and aspirations that a leader is stepping up to. We also need to understand the person. What do they bring to the role that will set them up for success and what do they bring that might interfere with their success. With an understanding of these two key elements, we can map a journey of growth that is focused, relevant and personalised. We can also prepare leaders who are better equipped to handle the myriad of challenges and opportunities they face throughout their leadership journey.
