BetterUp – Providing regular assessments to give companies critical insights into workforce development

Organizations are investing time and resources in training tomorrow's leaders to ensure that senior roles are handled by professionals with the right set of skills and clear goals. Good leaders are indispensable resources for an organization, not only because they contribute to the firm's growth but also because they drive innovation, create a good working environment, and mentor the newcomers within the organization. Leadership development is a program that is implemented to widen individuals' capacity to perform efficiently in headship roles within an organization. It focuses on developing and honing professionals' abilities to take on critical responsibilities in an organization, such as designing and executing business strategies, building alignment, and helping others with career growth. The development programs also help employees understand what not to do as a leader.
