Leadership Development and the One-Size-Fits-All Dilemma
Author: Ron Zamir
Publisher: Forbes
Topics: Leadership Development, Learning Experience Design, Change Management
The model for leadership development is changing. It’s becoming both more democratic, designed to meet the needs of leaders at all levels, and also more strategic, aligned to the skills and capabilities most critical to organizational outcomes. Generic competency models are being replaced by skill-based approaches and in-context practice. Creating a leadership journey focused on learner experience can help bridge the divide between training and on-the-job performance. That’s why improving leadership development is an L&D priority for the majority of corporate executives over the next year.

Personalized leadership training is not just best practice, but also a strategic imperative for organizations looking to cultivate a resilient leadership pipeline. Leadership engagement increased significantly when a large manufacturing company implemented training programs that offer unique learner journeys with experiences designed to develop prioritized capabilities for each leadership level. With the revamped approach—which is more aligned with the company’s business initiatives and customized to the needs of the learners—leaders can now get the training they need, when they need it.
At AllenComm, we design innovative learning experiences for leadership and other critical training programs. Learn more about our design and development services.

A fresh approach to leadership development programs, focused on real-world outcomes and the learner’s needs, is having a significant impact on leadership training. Taking a learner-centric approach, it shifts the focus away from content to creating engaging, personalized, and impactful learning journeys that are more relevant to the learner’s role in the company and more effective for the organization at large.
As an example, see AllenComm’s collaboration with Korn Ferry, which aligned their new leadership program with a capability-centered career architecture program.
