We are in a rapidly changing world. The pace and scale of change are accelerating.

But, as a leader, are you hitting the mark?

Transforming Leaders...

Innovative disruptions are happening in and to organizations, leadership and individual lives by the accelerated pace and scale of technological, digitization, globalization, competition and industrial, political, global health, economical, and societal changes. Evolution in technology and digitization are causing paradigm shifts in various industries, such as Government, Financial, Insurance and Banking, Media and Entertainment, Hospitality, Healthcare, Transporation, Retail, Food and Beverage, Education, Supply Chain, and Faith-based organizations.

Therefore, organizations and leaders that fail to recognize and respond rapidly or lead these emerging trends and innovations are going to be left behind or entirely left out.

For leaders, these changes result in the disruption of the status quo and have impacts on the traditional business model, market share, market position, and capital allocation. There is a driving need to adapt and evolve an innovative strategy that is enabled by technology quickly and more efficiently. Leaders must establish the appropriate plan to invest in new initiatives, customer-focused solutions and innovative business models that would catapult growth, mitigate the risk of future business disruption, or pioneer industry changes. But change is difficult and painful. Leaders need to be equipped, empowered, and educated to develop transformational leadership skills to implement innovation, sustain competitive advantage, inspire followers, and influence change successfully.

As a leader, are you engaged, equipped and empowered for a rapidly changing future?

A future-ready transformation innovative strategy requires a clear vision, describing the burning platform, driving the need for change, and assessing the risks of not changing. Tactics to influence the buy-in and to reinforce the benefits realization such as productivity, profitability, positioning, and performance, in addition to corporate social responsibility and sustainability goals. 

Future-ready organizations intentionally focus on their transformation strategy, roadmap, and governance in alignment with their corporate plan to appropriately and timely transform their products, people, processes, and technology.

The PILL, Transforming Leaders Framework  

Leadership is the ability to impact, inspire and influence followers positively to achieve a shared vision. Leadership is not just a position or a title; within each of us are the capabilities, whether by nature or nurture, to lead. 

Individuals must establish their purpose and understand the organization's mission and importance and the change/task. Equipping, empowering, and educating them to uncover their leadership identity as an individual makes the alignment to connect their personal goals and beliefs to the organizational vision, mission, and values. Empowerment is given to the person to take their natural role as a servant-leader and develop their servant-leadership skills.

In a recent keynote, "Igniting Leaders for Innovative Disruptions," Nicola McFadden shared real stories supporting the claim that we are in a leadership crisis. There is a growing opportunity for organizations to invest in leadership development and the talent gap in leaders to embrace the disruptive technological era and lead people with empathy. Leadership transformation should never be optional but at the highest priority of every organization. The consequences of poor leadership are all too distinct, too memorable, and far too expensive. Weak leaders negatively impact the organization's bottom line, performance, quality; customer experience; employee engagement; team morale, loyalty, and trusted relationship. Continuously developing your leaders is a must-have, a requirement for any organization's success and survival. 

It is impressive that more and more businesses are now claiming that executive coaching is a successful leadership development approach that results in over a 5-8 times return on investment and can boost team performance, leadership effectiveness, organization productivity, and profitability. Additionally, some leaders are personally seeking out and actively participating in their leadership development and personal branding.

We are in a leadership crisis and we need a cure.

Nicola introduced the "PILL as a remedy" to help organizations develop and transform leaders to serve, love, lead, impact, and influence others, creating meaning and fulfillment in every life, living, and livelihood. The PILL focuses on the leaders having a high positive impact on others, gaining organizational alignment, and igniting, inspiring, and influencing followers to become future leaders, leaving a legacy for generations and society. 

The PILL presents four essential elements of transforming leaders.

Leadership. Relationship. Entrepreneurship.

EVOLVE LEADERSHIP. EMPOWER RELATIONSHIPS. EXPAND ENTREPRENEURIAL THINKING.

Today's leadership survival and organization thriving toolkits will need new tools, mindsets, and techniques. Leaders should cultivate an entrepreneurial and innovative culture, empower employees, and encourage creative thinking. Leaders must calculate risk-taking and decision-making beyond the leader's experience and intuition, backed by metrics, data-driven methodology, and outcome-oriented strategy. This transformational leadership and innovative culture should be encouraged at the individual, departmental (teams), and entire organizational levels.
