Abstract
Purpose
Current volatile environments, business complexity, and leadership gaps are compelling organizations to deploy effective leadership development strategies. Fueled by competitive growth and people challenges, efforts continue to scale up but fail to create the desired leaders. This paper aims to address the missing links and calls for new ways of deploying leadership development strategy.
Design/methodology/approach
Qualitative data on experiential feedback have been collected from participants and stakeholders of leadership development programs in Indian organizations.
Findings
An integrated six-step approach to leadership development has been proposed for scholars and practitioners.
Practical implications
From the practitioner’s perspective, this study contributes to the field of leadership development by challenging the relevance of current approaches. It also adds to the scholarly literature on leadership development in the context of the organization and the individual.
Originality/value
Current studies in the area of leadership development in the Indian context are scarce.
期刊介绍：
Development and Learning in Organizations: An International Journal is a unique management information resource for today"s busy managers who are seeking to develop their organization in the right direction. Case studies on leading companies and viewpoints from some of the best thinkers in the area of organizational development and learning combine to make this journal a very welcome addition to the management literature. In addition, as part of our special service, we scour through the mass of academic and non-academic literature to ensure that we keep up to date with the best and newest ideas. We then distil this information for our readers and present the most meaningful implications for managers in easy-to-digest reviews and commentaries.
