Summary
This article presents an evidence-based framework for understanding leaders’ challenges across organizational levels. Machine learning text analysis of comments from over 34,000 leaders resulted in three overarching challenges leaders say they face: (1) personal growth, (2) people and task demands, and (3) working in a larger system. The authors address how CHROs can use this framework increase leadership development ROI.
