Leadership Development

Give Your Leaders What They Need to Succeed

Today’s workforce responds to leadership that follows a mentoring or coaching model. Successful leaders work with their teams to provide vision and to set goals, as well as to encourage involvement and accountability. SDG believes that leadership development is a process not an event. A core service of the Service Dimensions Group is employee training in leadership development.

Leader development focuses on the development of the leader, such as the personal attributes desired in a leader, desired ways of behaving, ways of thinking or feeling. In contrast, leadership development focuses on the development of leadership as a process. This process includes the interpersonal relationships, social influence process, and the team dynamics between the leader and his/her team, the factors surrounding the team such as the perception of the organizational climate and the social network linkages between the team and other groups in the organization.

Our leadership development process will assist your leaders to:

• Interpret the organizational vision for your team and communicate that vision in a way that motivates action.
• Examine the culture of those you lead and structure them in a way that maximizes their involvement.
• Employ strategies that will enable your team to take a proactive approach toward change.
• Identify the specific leadership values and behaviors that will contribute to your success as a leader.
• Implement your own action plan so that your vision, goals and leadership development complement one another.
