Why we need vertical development right now.
Leaders at all levels are facing challenges they have never known before. It’s no longer enough to be good at what you do. Leaders need to have a greater range of understanding, resilience, empathy, and ability to respond that enables them to adapt and lead across constantly changing situations.
Vertical Development builds the capacity to deal with complexity. Vertically developed leaders are able to think more systemically, see the long-term possibilities, embrace challenges from multiple perspectives, and lead as interdependent collaborators.
These leaders are needed at all levels, not just in formal or senior leadership roles. Vertical development assessments are an important tool in helping leaders grow more adaptive mindsets. The VMI is a quick, inexpensive, and readily accessible way to gauge mindset and where one tends to fall on the vertical development journey.
