“Nearly every client I work with is experiencing the same thing—they’re trying to do more with less,” says Blanchard leadership expert Randy Conley. “Their managers have increased spans of control. They manage more people than they ever have in the past, and they're doing that in a constantly changing environment.
“Leadership these days is not for the faint of heart. It requires managers and leaders to up their game when it comes to their leadership skills. Leaders need to be much more flexible and agile in today's environment.”
That’s why, in the new revision of Blanchard’s SLII® learning design, there is such a big focus on helping leaders and managers be as effective as possible in the time they have available with their people.
