Intellectual knowledge is not enough

• Most successful leaders today have a good intellectual understanding of the various management tools & skills required to lead an organization successfully. They have gone through countless training programs, books, and E-learning.
• However, when it comes to implementing the intellectual knowledge and converting it into an on job change in behavior, most leaders have a great deal of difficulty.
• Therefore, the major leadership challenges for managers and executives today is NOT understanding the practice of leadership BUT practicing their understanding of leadership.
• For successful organizational leaders to become more effective, leadership change needs to be positive, sustained, recognized and acknowledged by their stakeholders (and others).

Marshall Goldsmith Stakeholder Centered Coaching is a real time on the job process that is highly effective and time efficient. Accelerating leadership growth and effectiveness is about changing behaviors and creating new processes & habits while interacting with others (stakeholders) on the job.

Awareness and Acceptance are not enough

Some coaching programs are effective in creating awareness and acceptance in the leader.  As a result, the leader intellectually understands the need to change, where he needs to change, and how it will improve his leadership effectiveness. Although this critical step is a necessary condition for improvement, it is not sufficient.  “Intent of the leader to change” is good, but it should translate into action and achievement.
