WE DEVELOP LEADERS

Leader vision, decision-making ability, communication skills, and ethical conduct are essential not only for driving growth and achieving organizational goals but also for engaging and retaining quality employees across the career pipeline. 

 

"Only 21% of U.S. employees strongly agree that they trust the leadership of their organization. This marks a noteworthy decline from its 2019 peak (24%) and raises a serious question about morale in American businesses. Trust begins to build when employees feel inspired by senior leaders and see strategic actions leading to business success. As such, the declines in employees’ confidence in the financial future of their organization and feeling inspired by their leadership further indicate that employees’ trust in leadership is evaporating. And all of this coincides with a historic decline in employee engagement."  
(Why Trust in Leaders Is Faltering and How to Gain It Back) 


“…now more than ever, unengaged employees are willing to change jobs or careers in order to find fulfillment, and according to a recent Gallup State of the Global Workplace report, 85% of employees are either not engaged or actively disengaged from work, resulting in $7 trillion in lost productivity globally (Harter, 2017)”  (Knotts & Houghton, 2021)
