LEADERSHIP & MANAGERIAL GAPS
WHY IT MATTERS
- 75% of employees cite their direct manager as the most stressful part of their job (Gallup).
- Companies with highly aligned leadership see 58% higher revenue and profitability (McKinsey).
Strong leadership is the foundation of a thriving culture. When leaders lack alignment or clarity, it ripples through teams, impacting engagement, performance, and morale. Addressing these gaps empowers leaders to inspire, support, and lead by example across the organization.
When leaders aren’t equipped with the skills and support they need, organizations can suffer from high turnover, disengaged employees, and a fragmented culture.
Key Stat: Only 15% of employees feel that their organization’s leadership models a strong culture (Workhuman).
Why Do Leadership Gaps Arise?
- Rapid growth or restructuring, leaving leaders without clear guidance.
- Promotions based on technical skills, without the necessary people-management training.
- Inconsistent practices, causing confusion and eroding trust.
Key Stat: 69% of managers feel uncomfortable communicating with employees in general, which affects team trust and performance (SHRM).
That's what to do, but remember how you do it is just as important. We can help!
