Our research shows that to successfully operate in today’s constantly changing and globally connected world, leaders
need a distinct skillset.
Traditional tools are not always effective in assessing dynamic skills such as catalytic
learning and comfort with complexity.
A blend of tools that assess underlying attributes, leadership capabilities, and cross-cultural skills can lead to impactful results.

• Virtual Assessment Centre simulations were more discriminating in terms of how people thought and operated than cognitive ability tests in PNG
• ‘Accountability’ was perceived differently at different levels in the organization whilst influencing senior stakeholders was a specific challenge to PNG nationals
• Although there is an awareness that cultural differences exist, leaders needed more help to understand how these nuanced differences impact work practices and how to readily adapt their style accordingly.
• Organisational culture may impact decision making, change & adaptability, and strategy execution as the dominant culture is highly formal and hierarchical

DEVELOPING A GLOBAL MINDSET
Building a global mindset must be an organizational pursuit with c-level sponsorship, infrastructure to support mobility and the culture to promote in-role development.
Global Leadership simulations, cross cultural teaming and overseas experiences provide critical contextual learning experiences. The new bread of assessment tools can help you move quickly from ‘insight’ into development activity.
IMMERSIVE DEVELOPMENT EXPERIENCES
Development interventions linked to business strategy are most impactful. Ensuring the talent / mobility agenda are discussed with business strategy can help ensure development has relevance, momentum and visibility.
