Leadership Development
In a world experiencing constant disruption, exceptional leadership is more important than ever. Great leaders inspire, adapt, build followership, drive meaningful change and, ultimately, get results.
Great leaders build thriving organizations.

Success requires future-ready leadership.
Gallup has studied excellence in leadership for more than 50 years and uses this deep expertise to help organizations identify and develop talented, future-ready leaders.
To face the evolving challenges of our time successfully, leaders must ultimately know three things:
Gallup's Leadership Development Framework
Our leadership development framework is built around an equation that helps leaders achieve sustainable performance by developing their strengths.
Talent
Effective leadership development starts with deeply understanding the leader's natural talent. Talent illuminates the ways in which a leader is likely to make the most significant contribution.
Gallup offers two distinct types of assessments to identify a leader's most natural ways of thinking, feeling and behaving.
When developing leaders in a role, CliftonStrengths provides an individualized perspective on the leader's top themes and a universal language by which partnerships and teams can be understood.
Leadership Talent Assessments
For high-potential, future or new leaders, Gallup offers talent assessments that evaluate an individual's natural responses to role-relevant demands.
These scientifically validated assessments are aligned to four key roles — operational, people, senior and executive leadership — and are based on decades of research on successful leaders across the globe.
Investment
Leadership Expectations
Creating a shared understanding of successful leadership behaviors facilitates collaboration, performance development, application of talent and, ultimately, a high-performance workplace. Behavior-based 360 assessments provide holistic and actionable feedback for leaders to facilitate growth.
Experiential Learning
Learning experiences designed for leaders provide a deep understanding of role expectations, help to identify strengths and opportunities in action, and introduce research, frameworks and timely insights that expand expertise and enhance leaders' readiness to meet the demands of the job.
Executive Coaching
Targeted developmental conversations with a professional coach highlight a leader's strengths and address potential blind spots. A deepened understanding of self allows the leader to better meet the needs of their followers, constituencies and, ultimately, the organization.
Key Experiences
Key experiences provide opportunities for leaders to acquire knowledge and apply their talent, enabling them to approach new challenges and opportunities more effectively in the role.
Identifying key experiences allows for the design of a systematic approach to expose leaders to these growth-prompting, pivotal circumstances.
