Traditional Approaches to Leadership Development Are Failing

Growth Groups & Leadership Development by CoThryve (1).jpg

Gallup research confirms that the “opportunity to grow and develop” is the top thing Millennials value in an employer, followed by Purpose and Quality of Management. Yet the strong majority (63%) of Millennials do not feel they’re getting this from their employer.

Traditional approaches to leadership development are not cutting it — 76% of execs at companies with programs for HiPo talent consider the programs to be failing. They’re struggling with retention, and they aren’t effectively equipping leaders to fill the leadership gaps needed to execute the organization’s strategy.

That’s because they oftentimes lack the systems and accountability that drives sustained development follow-through, and they miss on a critical opportunity to build camaraderie and a deeper sense of connection to their company and team.

do Leadership Development in a way that works

Growing leaders lead growing companies. Studies show:

Superior talent is up to 8X more effective than average performers
Talent who gets meaningful opportunities to grow and develop is 2X more likely to say they will spend their career at your company

5 Elements of a CoThryve Growth Group

Click on the elements below to expand and learn more about what your company can expect from a CoThryve Growth Group.

+ Powerful Peer Group Forum: leveraging the CoThryve Growth Formula™ and 4x4 Dashboard™

This is where the magic happens – peer-to-peer learning and dialogue. We bring the structure, systems and accountability that produces results.

Through the Growth Group, we support your leaders in applying the Growth Formula (CIA):

Clarity - get CLARITY on your why, individual giftings, the areas you want to grow to pursue the best version of you
Intentionality - be INTENTIONAL by making plans, deciding the actions you will take to grow and achieve your aspirations, scheduling your priorities
Action - take consistent ACTION and execute on your plans alongside built-in success partners who help you keep momentum

Each month, we set our 4x4's. These are the 4 things we commit to getting done over the next 4 weeks that will move the needle the most in our lives and careers.

It's amazing how much we accomplish by focusing on what will drive the most value month by month and sharing these stretch goals out loud, documented in a dashboard with peers. The motivation and momentum to make them happen and succeed is contagious.

+ Individualized Growth Plans: Leadership & Personal Growth Plans For Each Leader

We help each leader envision and define their leadership brand and map their growth journey. We set goals, work our plans, and provide your company the tools to ensure progress.

We always start with WHY, helping your leaders articulate what drives them as humans and connecting their personal purpose to your company’s higher purpose and mission. We use a strengths-based approach to growth that helps your leaders identify, own, and maximize their unique giftings.

+ Tailored Curriculum: actionable leadership and business content tailored for your company

We help your leaders build leadership and business acumen to drive your company forward. Check out our list of courses here, and if you think of something your company would particularly like to focus on that’s not on this list, we listen to your needs and create it.

Our content is engaging, rooted in purpose that inspires action, and actually applicable to your leaders’ real-world jobs at your company.

+ Meaningful Mentorship & (optional) 1:1 Anytime Coaching™

We are very skilled at connecting with your HiPo talent and giving them the personal investment they need to thryve as humans, grow as leaders, and navigate their career at your company.

With CoThryve, your HiPo leaders get an outside mentor for a greater sense of candor, external perspective, and fresh ideas - committed to helping them grow at your company.

+ (optional) Project on Purpose™ (POP): each leader drives a high-value flagship project

Each leader identifies and drives a high-impact project to create measurable value for their organization. The POP flows out of the individual leader’s personal purpose, ties directly to the company’s mission, and grows proactive leaders who take action and drive real results.
