Developing Leaders
Developing leadership capacity is the same as
changing any other behavior or activity—it takes
coaching, practice, and reflection.

I think if we were to make leadership development
more part of the natural process of development that
goes on in organizations and is reinforced daily, we
would not have to transfer it back to the job.

The Six Step Model
The system we present is one way to develop the
leadership capacity of the individuals with whom
you work each and every day. The “classroom” is the
work environment, and the facilitator is you, the
manager.

Step One
Get Your Own Shop in Order
Our entire model is created on a foundation of trust.
Those around you must trust that you have their best
interests at heart.

Step Two
Build Your Leadership Development System
Together we will create a leadership development
system tailored to your department and your
organization. We recommend beginning with one or
two changes at first.

Step Three
Involve Others
People support what they help create

Step Four
Manage the System
A word of caution—until these changes are
imbedded into the culture, pay very close attention to
the process.

Allen, Ph.D. Our Purpose To](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022041705/5e4451334c57557bea216e78/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Step Five
Evaluate the System
Like managing the system, evaluating the system is
an essential step— always. If your team is dissatisfied
or feels that a certain activity is not working, this
needs to be revealed and discussed.

Step Six
Add New Pieces with Caution
If you and your team determine that additional
components should be introduced, reintroduce the six
stages and begin the process again.

Modeling Leadership
Tip #10 – Coach For Performance
Quite simply, most people need to practice to become
world-class. They also need coaching. Clear
expectations and goals are only the first step. Next,
your team needs a supervisor who “coaches”
performance on a consistent basis.

Training
Tip #16 - Stretch Your Team—Always
At any given time, all team members should be
working on at least one project that is taking their
skills to the next level—a project just outside their
comfort zone.

Education
Tip #33 - Conduct After-Action Reviews
Leaders who have the ability to reflect upon and chart
alternative courses of action (and their consequences)
are thinking at a higher level. They are more aware of
the context within which they are working.

Development
Tip #40 - Encourage Service in the Community
Challenging individuals to work outside the scope of
their “work” role can be stimulating and highly
developmental. After all, boards are involved in
many aspects of the organization—personnel, strategic
planning, development/fund-raising, performance
monitoring, and stakeholder engagement

Feedback
Tip #47 – Set Aside Time for Self Evaluation
These do not need to be cumbersome processes. For
instance, it may be two simple questions, such as
“What are you doing well in our department?” and
“Where could you improve?”

Peter Vaill
A chronic problem with teaching and training
about leadership is that there’s doing it and then
there’s talking about it. No amount of talking about it
seems to result in people becoming better at doing it.
