COVERSTORY
Dig Deeper
Once you collect the data, you need to make it
actionable. Dig for deeper meaning beyond the
numbers. e quantitative measurements can indicate if
your program is on track or if adjustments are
needed. You should share the success of your distinct
programs - not just with the training department, but very
importantly it should be shared with the business unit
stakeholders that you support. ey need to know that
what you are giving their leaders is relevant, being applied
and is leading to better business results.
Irrespective of the
survey results, as training
professionals, we should be
checking regularly with the
senior leaders we support
to make sure that in their
opinion we are delivering what they want and need for
their leaders. Without the personal buy-in of these senior
leaders to our programs, all the great survey results in the
world will not make a difference in regards to the
perception of whether we are creating value in leadership
development for the leaders in their organization.
Sustaining and measuring leadership development
programs is a challenge - but it can be done to great effect.
If you take the time and effort to sustain the training, keep
your courses relevant, gain leadership buy-in for your
programs and measure the few important data points,
you'll be better served in bringing value to the leaders in
your organization. ■
