How much time do you spend developing your leadership succession plan? As older leaders begin to retire at greater rates, the 2018 Deloitte Millennial Survey discovered that 65% of potential millennial leaders feel unprepared to take their places. Forbes reports that by 2025, 75% of the workforce will be made up of millennials. These statistics suggest that there’s a leadership crisis on the horizon. Designing a strategy and framework to direct leadership development is mission critical for every organization. Training—and retaining —emerging leaders in your company should be a top priority. Understanding what team members want and expect from an employer will help you develop the right programs and systems to keep your talent engaged in learning, growing, and contributing to your organization.

• Retain your talented resource   

• Design a leadership development framework   

• Create a culture of learning

According to Stanford Research Institute International, just 25% of an employee's performance is attributable to technical skills, whereas nearly 75% of an employee's success is attributable to soft skills. Soft skills aren’t a replacement for hard skills, but they sure are an enviable asset. Soft skill training for staff members is a great approach to upskill your workers and keep top talent in your organization. According to a World Economic Forum survey, among all soft skills, critical thinking is one of the most sought-after soft skills by employers who want to entice and retain the best talent. Employers agree that the need for critical thinking abilities will increase over the next few years. Employees who practice critical thinking at work are more likely to think rationally and solve problems quickly. In the end, this lowers expensive errors and assures the wise use of an organization's resources.
