HOW SUCCESSFACTORS HELPS TRANSFORM MANAGERS INTO LEADERS
1. What Skills Differentiate the

How do high-performing organizations manage their talent? Research studies
indicate the growing role that corporate competencies play in performance
management. As more and more organizations standardize and automate employee
performance management, the use of standard competencies is also increasing. How
do organizations use competencies and which of the competencies drive higher
business results? Do they make a difference at all?
Leadership Development is one such competency, which
is gaining prominence in this rapidly changing world. A
global study conducted by a leading HR strategy firm
revealed that 35% of organizations face significant
challenges in honing and developing leadership talent.
It is interesting to examine why and where organizations
fail to address this key challenge, when they recognize
that leadership talent is very critical. Could it be that
companies perceive leadership development as a
short term objective? Building effective succession
planning processes within the organizations is therefore
imperative.
Most managers and executives of these
organizations do possess these skills, but how
does one use these actions, so that managers turn
into leaders? Leadership development is a critical
strategic initiative in ensuring:
• The right employees are retained.
• The culture of the organization
supports performance from within
to gain market position.
• That managers are equipped to
take on future leadership roles, so
that the organization is viable in
the long term.
