Bridging the Leadership Gap

Chief Learning Officer.com presented a study by Harvard Business Publishing Corporate Learning – COVID-19 Heightens the Leadership Gap – based on a global survey of Learning & Development professionals.

The study identifies global leadership gaps and the specific skills and capabilities that leaders and especially mid-level managers can focus on to move forward:

1. The ability to pivot quickly, let go of assumptions fast and shift into a growth mindset.
2. The ability to build a sense of purpose and belonging across a distributed, remote workforce.
3. The ability to foster an innovation environment for teams to continuously innovate.

While implementing changes on this scale may seem expensive and overwhelming, solutions can be straightforward and achievable. Our new video: Psychological Safety: The express route to high performance, learning, and innovation is a cost-effective microlearning solution that provides tools and guidance on changes to language and behavior that can help managers at all levels. The video includes access to the Learn More Resources Guide that managers can use to create psychological safety in the workplace.

Leaders must build psychologically safe workplaces where employees feel comfortable and encouraged to learn, innovate, speak up, share, and take the kind of interpersonal risks that power high-performing teams.
