Client
The client is an international manufacturing firm with operations in six countries and 23k employees.
Challenge
The organization was faced with rapid expansion and attrition due to a transitioning/retiring executive workforce. Additionally, they were challenged with a global work force requiring varied levels of leadership development and inclusion training.
Solution
AMS created a stage-gated educational and development plan that included a leadership assessment, gap analysis aligned to job function and baseline competency, as well as crafting customized best practices and intellectual property to align with the organization's strategic initiatives.
AMS’s strategic approach to leadership development began with a comprehensive assessment of existing leadership capabilities within the organization. This involved evaluating skills, behaviors, and potential gaps. The assessment provided valuable insights into individual strengths, areas for improvement, and alignment with organizational goals. AMS then aligned the assessment results with specific job functions and strategic objectives, ensuring that the Leadership Development Program (LDP) addressed relevant competencies and targeted areas needing development. By tailoring the program to the organization's needs, AMS maximized its impact on leadership effectiveness.
AMS designed a structured, stage-gated plan for leadership development, with each stage focusing on specific competencies. Participants moved through the stages based on their performance and readiness, progressively building from foundational skills to advanced leadership capabilities. Customized best practices and intellectual property were developed by leveraging AMS’s expertise and industry best practices. This included leadership frameworks, case studies, and practical tools, aligning with the organization’s unique context.
To ensure strategic initiatives integration, AMS made leadership development an integral part of achieving business goals. By embedding leadership skills into strategic execution, AMS facilitated sustainable growth and resilience. The stage-gated educational plan, combined with customized content and a focus on alignment with strategic objectives, provided the organization with a robust framework for developing effective leaders.
