Reverse Elevation - Empowering Emerging Leaders to Elevate their Managers

How many development programmes lead to change across your organisation? Whilst many programmes are looking to develop the skills, knowledge and behaviours across a specific level, one question that gets raised consistently by those being developed: "Have our managers been through this?".

There seems to be a view that once leaders achieve a certain level/ status, they don't need to experience the same programme their teams are being put on, leading to a skills gap between managers and their teams.

And then there's other gap - the gap between what people on development programmes are learning, versus how and what the organisation is implementing in terms of tasks/ activities. How are these people ever meant to implement their learnings when the organisation is almost contradicting everything being learned in real time?

Then learning providers are being pressured to demonstrate return on investment...sounds like a real mess. Join Amrit as he explores how organisations can make the most of development opportunities and empowering emerging leaders to reverse elevate those above them.
