The Leadership Gap

What you need, and don't have, when it comes to leadership talent

This paper shares findings from a Center for Creative Leadership study conducted between 2006 and 2008, designed to explore the concern that leadership skills are lacking. We surveyed 2,200 leaders from 15 organizations in three countries. The study showed that crucial leadership skills in today's organizations are, in fact, insufficient for meeting current and future needs. This special report also provides recommendations for organizations seeking to assess and bridge the gap between where they are and where they need to be as they adjust and re-invent themselves in the coming months and years.
