Overcoming the Knowing-Doing Gap in Leadership Development

The leadership development industry has enjoyed a CAGR of 9% from 2019 to 2024 and is currently valued at USD81.2 billion. This leaps to USD216.9 billion by 2034 . Yet despite this massive expenditure, such programmes struggle to meet the demand from the C-Suite to demonstrate business impact, much less ROI .
To have impact, leaders must put the knowledge they gain from the programme into purposeful action that has real impact.
But a consistent problem we see is the ‘knowing – doing gap’. We have smart people who can absorb all sorts of models, tools, and techniques on how to lead more powerfully, but they often struggle to put these into action.

In this workshop we will explore three key questions to help you create leadership development that delivers impact.

• What are the factors that cause the knowing – doing gap?
• What approaches can leadership programmes take to overcome the knowing – doing gap?
• How can success be measured?

3 Key Learnings

1. The four aspects to include in leadership development programmes to overcome the knowing – doing gap.
2. How to design these aspects into your leadership programme.
3. Simple ways to measure effectiveness.
