8 Eye-Opening Business Leadership Trends [Infographic]
Any organization that is driven to stay ahead of their competition has keen eye on relevant business leadership trends – not only in their industry but trends that manifest on a more macro level. After all, the leadership team of an organization is a primary driver, propelling the company to innovate, serve customers better, create a conducive work environment for other employees, and more.
As the world’s frontrunner in scalable leadership development, we spend lots of energy and time researching, understanding, and applying macro business leadership trends. We’ve compiled eight of the most compelling stats and figures in the world of business leadership in the below infographic.
The most compelling statistic in our opinion is that:
The cost of customized leadership development can reach $150,000 per person, yet only 13% of companies rated themselves as excellent in developing leaders.
This is a staggering statistic yet despite the cost of traditional coaching the results have been less than desirable. This data lends weight to our observation that companies have identified that scalable leadership development is a priority. That’s why it’s important to invest wisely in developing business leaders with a solution like C4X that has proven results.
Take a look at the rest of the figures below:
