Most organisations have realised the importance of recruiting, developing, engaging, and retaining their leadership talent \u2013 no surprises there. They have also found value in using an objective and reliable measurement method to identify leadership and high potential talent.\u00a0However, some organisations still struggle to get buy-in from senior executives (those who hold the purse strings) and lack budget approval for one of the most important drivers of organisational success. If you are renewing your\u00a0leadership assessment\u00a0budget or trying to get executive support for the first time, these seven facts will help you get budget approval. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These circumstances could have proven to be problematic even pre-pandemic, but given the current hiring climate, they could put you at an ever bigger disadvantage in the competitive talent market. Not having a documented succession planning strategy could be the deciding factor when it comes to securing top talent. Candidates want to know that as they invest their career with you, you are in turn investing your time and resources into them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This isn’t a one-way street, though. By building out a thoughtful succession plan, you are taking practical steps toward developing a reliable leadership funnel. This can be one of the most important drivers of organisational success and the results produced are tangible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are in the process of renewing your leadership assessment budget or trying to get executive support for the first time, use the statistics below to build your case for succession planning within your organisation. The research over the last 50 years in the area of leadership selection and development is clear. Focusing on your high-potential staff within the organisation is not only important, but imperative in order to compete in today’s environment. You will find the long-term success and budget savings make it well worth the upfront investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Great leaders: what do they do differently?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

We all know that having great leaders is critical for success for most organisations.<\/h5>\n\n\n\n

However, less clear are the behaviours that great leaders engage in that others do not. We designed a research program to shed light on this issue. In order to answer this question we used our proprietary executive assessment process to assess current leaders. Then we gathered outcome information (e.g., promotions, salary increases, behaviours) so we could see the correlations between assessment scores, job outcomes, and leader behaviour. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
