Leadership

Leadership Assessment and Coaching at Mandala Partners International

Organizations today understand the impact of not paying adequate attention to developing leadership strength. The examples of failed leadership and the costs of it are staggering. In addition, population demographics show a clear decline and a continued, and even accelerated, decline in the supply of experienced professionals to assume management and leadership positions in the coming decades.

Leadership is a resource that MUST be managed effectively if businesses are to succeed.

How would you answer these questions about your organization's leaders?

Are any of your leaders more focused internally on the technical competence of the business and less aware of what the market needs or what the competition is doing?
Do any of your leaders demonstrate strength in developing strategies but weakness in executing them?
Are any of your leaders struggling to develop and maintain interpersonal relationships, or navigate the political landscape of your business?

Today's leaders must manage the complexities of globally intertwined markets, while keeping abreast of rapidly advancing technologies and competitive pressures. Additionally, they must be able to lead and motivate teams of excellent performers, outmaneuver competitors, exploit opportunities, avoid threats, take risks, and thrive in the ambiguous nature of today's marketplace. They must develop their successors as well as prepare themselves to assume positions of greater responsibility. And, they must manage these issues while maximizing operational effectiveness and steadily increasing the profitability of their business.

Mandala Partners has a comprehensive approach for identifying and developing leadership talent which is unparalleled in the healthcare industry. Our partners have vast experience in the industry as leaders, coaches, and as consultants to the leadership development process. Our unique MPI TALENT™ process includes:

Targeting Critical Competencies - What are the key skills, characteristics, and abilities needed for successful leadership in your organization. How well communicated and understood are these competencies in the organization?
Analysis of the Organization's Leadership Needs - What is the status of the organization's succession plan and its bench strength. Where is there cause for concern?
Leadership Assessment - Individual and Position - What level of competency is required for each leadership position. What is the level of competency of the incumbents or future candidates for the position.
Evaluation of Gaps - Comparison of status quo with the identified leadership needs.
Needs for Development - Organizational and individual development planning to achieve vision of full leadership effectiveness
Taking Action to keep things on course - Monitoring developmental efforts for desired results. Providing feedback either to the organization or to key leaders.

At Mandala Partners, we realize that some organizations prefer a very formal approach while others want something less structured. As such, the MPI TALENT™ process is a flexible design that is tailored to meet the specific needs of your organization.

Mandala Partners coaches must successfully pass a rigorous screening process and training to ensure that they will work effectively with your leaders. We work to create a strong match between the individual leader and the executive coach, and we check in with both parties throughout the coaching engagement to ensure that it is on track.

Using our experience and knowledge of leadership success in the healthcare industry, Mandala Partners coaches utilize a variety of tools to conduct individual assessments of your leaders, identify specific coaching goals, and develop a customized coaching program for each of your leaders to attain success.
