Leadership Transition Programmes^®

Inspires the leader to lead at the right level

Ask a leader of others or a leader of leaders to state four good reasons for having a twenty five percent bonus. Chances are that three out of four statements will relate to individual contributor work rather than to leadership achievements. And this is not a coincidence.

Many leaders experience their first promotion into a leadership role as a result of being capable individual contributors. However, the consequences are obvious. Since people tend to do what they are good at and what they are recognised for being good at, they will feel tempted to continue focusing their efforts at individual contributor work rather than at leadership work.

This challenge will only grow bigger if not addressed early in the leadership career. And mere skill-based leadership training will not help. It takes fundamental support in adapting to new work values and start recognising that as leaders they add value to the organisation through leadership achievements rather than just individual contributor work.

The Leadership Transition Programmes^® inspire the leader to appreciate their role as a leader and the programmes motivate the leader to step into their role as leader and to lead at the right level.
