Recognizing Talent and Developing Future Leaders
New Case Studies Show How a Fortune 500 Food Manufacturer Capitalized on High Potential Talent with a Tailored Leadership Development Program
SUNNYVALE, Calif., Oct. 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Making the most of employees' potential takes time and commitment from organizations. In a new case study, an international Fortune 500 food manufacturer successfully guided a group of 21 of their most talented individuals from different European countries along a path of leadership with a formal development program designed by The Myers-Briggs Company consultancy team. In a follow-up case study, the organization pivoted to virtual training options post-pandemic.
Setting up future leaders for success
To create a solution tailored to the company's needs, consultants from The Myers-Briggs Company established a development center for high potential employees to identify participant's strengths, foster a learning environment, and more. Business simulation activities, self-reflection, feedback, and development planning sessions were held over a two-day workshop, and results speak for themselves.
The company reported that since establishing the development center, 42% of the participants had been promoted and 23% were on stretch assignments. After the workshop, the learning center remained a valuable resource for participants, aiding in knowledge reinforcement and the cultivation of future leaders.
Pivoting for post-pandemic virtual training
In the second case study, the consultancy team redesigned the now 50+ person leadership development program to run virtually. Some changes included extending the original two-day timeframe to incorporate more breaks for virtual learners, and hands-on projects to help new behaviors stick.
Results in post-workshop surveys included that 79% of participants reported an increase in the extent to which they anticipated and met customer needs, and 74% of managers felt participants were now better able to identify which efforts would have the greatest strategic impact on the organization.
