Takeaways from Richard C. Huseman (2008).
Much of what passes for leadership development is a waste of time, or at least not the best use of money.
It is important that everyone reflect on what they could be doing better - both the person trying to become a better leader and the trainers trying to help them improve.
But it is vital to have a clear way to measure the improvement of a developing leader.
Stretch assignments and honest, anonymous feedback are most likely to improve a developing leader.
A coach can facilitate improvement by gathering data from others, self-assessment of the leader, building self-awareness, creating an action plan, continuing to provide coaching feedback, and support in stretch assignments.
