Emerging Leaders
Develop your high potential employees' leadership skills
Individuals with high potential to contribute to you will exceed expectations and face new challenges. For those who demonstrate leadership potential, it is essential to provide training and learning opportunities to prepare them for future leadership roles in the organization.

Keeping high achievers engaged in their work requires career development opportunities.
Retain high performers
Companies that invest in their employees are more likely to retain them.
Establish a leadership pool
Employee retention and buy-in for management changes are higher in organizations that promote from within.

A path to the leadership team helps everyone feel seen, heard, and valued by investing in exceptional employees.
Establish a clear path for future leaders
According to Blanchard, you need to identify your high-performing individual contributors passionate about leadership to build your leadership talent pool from within. Emerging leaders must develop the skills following to transition from individual contributors to proactive, assertive leaders:
- Share information accurately and openly
- Overcome challenges and take risks
- Demonstrate excellent interpersonal skills
- Cultivate curiosity about emerging industry and workplace trends
- Collaborate with and support others
- Work cooperatively with others across the organization
Blanchard sees that all employees can be leaders in their own right—individual contributors lead themselves, while others may also affect the development of projects and teams. Our emerging leader plans aim to instill individuals with a leadership mindset, provide them with the necessary skills to undertake their current duties and prepare them for a more senior leadership position. Learners take part in multiple research-backed approaches encompassing all aspects of life, not just work, heightening their leadership capacity.
