Challenge One The need for better leaders and managers • 93% of employers say poor management skills are holding back their organisations • Most new managers have no training prior to taking up their role • There are limited opportunities for training once they were in post The leadership and management talent pipeline (ILM: 2012) • Low levels of management skills and performance are a limiting factor in the UK's economic performance and international competitiveness • Leadership & Management in the UK: The key to sustainable growth(BIS: 2012)

  4. ‘Knowing how’ as well as ‘knowing that’ ILM’s approach to developing leadership and management capability Leadership & management is based on having a good grasp of the principles, theories and practices that underpin effective performance (knowing that) Effective leadership & management performance means being able to transfer that knowledge and understanding into the workplace (knowing how) An ILM programme requires that learners have an opportunity to apply what they have learnt and demonstrate that they can use it effectively in the workplace
