Quotes From Developing Leaders and Leadership

"Just because an activity is fun or enjoyable does not mean it is developmental. It perpetuates the predominant mindset that leadership development is a like a pass to an amusement park. You go on a bunch of rides, maybe play some games, have a laugh or two, and write it off as your developmental investment in leadership for the year."
"Attending a few workshops or programs spread out over time is not going to do much in terms of developing expert-level leadership. There needs to be
an ongoing commitment to practicing one’s leadership to get the time
and amount of deliberate practice to become that expert leader."
"The lack of evidence to support the effectiveness of leadership development in for-profit organizations and corporations is unsettling, to say the least."
"Sending a changed person back into an unchanged system tends to be an exercise in futility. A systems perspective incorporates environmental influence into the design and delivery of leader development interventions."
