In any field of business, one is unlikely to invest funds without successfully analysing the same in detail. This benchmark does not seem to go with management training that is geared towards leadership development. A staggering US$ 24 billion is spent annually in the US, but there is little to justify the actual sums spent. Since only the rising stars are invited in the first place, it is very difficult whether they would have reached these heights anyway. Most of this assessment on rising leaders is done through their results. Yet, external results should not be seen as the only parameter as intrinsic qualities also matter a lot when one reaches the top corporate positions. Two attributes have most affected leadership development. One is how the different aspects of leadership development were evaluated. The other is how many of the company directors were involved this this trainee evaluation and selection.
