The Case for Leadership &
Management Development

• It's hard to make a case for
spending money on
developing leaders and
managers.
• There is significant
research pointing to the
value of investing in this
development.

commissioned by UK
Government

Key Messages for
Organisations
• Fact 1. Organisations with better qualified Managers
and a dedicated programme of Leadership and
Management Development perform better
• Fact 2. Better trained Managers ensure a more
engaged workforce and enhance employee
wellbeing, leading to better performance, lower
absenteeism and lower staff turnover
• Fact 3. Underperforming Managers cost
organisations money and are directly linked to
business failure.

7. 7

Key Messages for
Organisations
• Fact 4. Underperforming Managers affect
competitive advantage and productivity
• Fact 5. There are some great Managers – but these
are held back by underperformers
• Fact 6. If the bottom half of performers were
brought up to the standard of the average
performer, your country performance would be a
world-beater!.
(Adapted from a report written by ILM, CIPD, CMI and ACAS in 2012)

Oakwood Experience to date…..
• Most Organisations tell us that Leadership is the key
to success
• In fact what most Organisations lack is Management
• This programme of study will help aspiring, new and
Middle Managers understand the difference
“Leaders show us the way, but Managers actually get us there”.
