Having the necessary elements of leadership development program in place does not guarantee its success. There are certain values and methods that you need to incorporate in order for it to operate smoothly and effectively. There should be no room for confusion so the entire process should be well laid out with very clear parameters for trainers, mentors, coaches, and managers as well as participants. Everyone needs to have a clear idea of what is expected of them and how the process works. The more organized you can be, the better. Establish timelines when applicable and set goals with timeframes, even if they have to be flexible. Once you train your new leaders you won’t want them to take their newly acquired or honed skills to another organization. Find ways to retain your employees and include them in that conversation.
