What is the true cost of hiring poor leadership?

    Choosing the wrong leaders, be it through hiring or promotion, has significant financial and reputational implications. Forbes states that the cost of a poor leadership hire can vary from £30,165 to over £132,000, depending on salary and industry factors. Also, a flawed leadership selection can lead to other consequences including: 

    • Resources wasted on training, recruitment, and severance.
    • Decreased productivity and revenue.
    • Lowered employee morale and engagement.
    • Harm to company culture and brand image.

    We understand what defines an exceptional leader

    With our extensive experience partnering with the world's leading organisations and ongoing research into the evolving landscape of leadership, we've gained profound insights into the critical leadership behaviors that drive organisational success. Exceptional leaders exhibit these six key attributes:

    1. Inspiring, motivating, and engaging people
    2. Empowering people to deliver
    3. Fostering collaboration, trust, and respect
    4. Being open, authentic, and ethical
    5. Coaching and developing people
    6. Showing empathy and compassion

    That's why our assessments focus on a subset of these attributes most relevant to the roles you seek to evaluate, alongside an evaluation of your leaders' emotional intelligence. This approach offers valuable insights into their strengths and areas for growth in leadership roles.

    90% of the difference between star performers and average ones in senior leadership roles can be attributed to emotional intelligence.*

    *According to Daniel Goleman, a recognised authority in emotional intelligence.
