Whether you are in times of crisis or business-as-usual, the basics of engineering an effective leader development program don’t change. However, in times of uncertainty, it is even more essential to follow a defined blueprint because resources are constrained, internal spending is scrutinized, and clear outcomes are demanded.
If there is a silver lining to the cataclysmic events over the past few months, it is that it has forced an accelerated evolution in the fields of education and training. There is no longer any room for generic content, poor delivery, or expensive programs that deliver subpar outcomes.
McChrystal Group is launching a new field manual as a practical guide that provides suggestions and best practices to design, deliver, and measure Leader Development Programs in spite of the challenges posed by COVID-19.
