As organizations face rapid change and increasing complexity, leadership development can no longer be limited to those with formal titles. Modern workplaces benefit when everyone is equipped to think critically, collaborate, and respond confidently to challenges in their roles. This approach not only strengthens individual performance but also creates a more agile and resilient organization that’s prepared to navigate the challenges of the future.
In Leadership Development: Cultivating Critical Skills for Employees at All Levels, ATD Research examines how organizations implement leadership development at all levels, what leadership skills are most important to organizations and learners, and how organizations and learners benefit from leadership development programs. The study surveyed 214 talent development (TD) professionals, 104 C-suite executives (excluding HR and TD executives), and 1,035 working Americans (learners).
Some key findings from this study include:
Leadership development is a high priority for organizations.
Organizations have been providing leadership development to executives, directors, and managers for a while but more recently started offering it to individual contributors.
Organizations experience a continuation of organizational culture and a strengthened leadership pipeline when they offer leadership development at all levels.
