Developing Leaders

How to close the gap between job satisfaction and genuine engagementand create training and development plans that produce passionate leaders. Many companies and managers fall back on traditional and standardized training events when trying to improve upon broad areas that cant really be managedsuch as change time and stress. Mary Hladio knows that these approaches dont work and the numbers prove shes right. Research by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) shows that while over eighty percent of employees are generally satisfied with their current positions less than seventy percent feel passion and excitement for their job and just over half feel tuned in at work. Thats a thirty percent drop-off between satisfaction and engagement.

It is not simply designed to show people the problems with their current approaches but to provide workable solutionsand a blueprint for how to link a companys development objectives to their corporate strategy as a precursor to creating any developmental plan. Hladio tackles one of the most critical components of your success. You will begin to learn both how to be a leader and how to identify others as true and worthy leaders.
