than 470 companies worldwide, the ‘Top
Companies for Leaders’ study identified a strong connection between
business strategy and leadership strategy.
All of the Global Top Companies have articulated a clear
business case for investing in leadership as a strategic imperative.
Nearly 85% of Top Companies say their leaders
can explain how the investment in leadership affects financial performance,
while only 54% of all other companies in the study can say the same. In fact, 92% of Top Companies say their
stakeholders understand how their leadership strategy creates value, compared
to just 78% of all other organisations in the study.
