How should the adaptive leadership toolkit be communicated to the
organization's leadership to help gain buy-in?
I suggest that the adaptive leadership toolkit should be presented to executive
leadership for their review and reaction. In my experience, executives tend to like
data and accompanying visuals. The presentation should include both and leave
room for discussion and inspiration opportunities. Another idea is to have a few
ambassadors that support the toolkit. These are the people that can be counted on to
build the necessary momentum and energize the process.
How can you ensure this communication strategy is sustainable long-term,
more than two years?
The launch of the toolkit with the support of the executive leadership team will be
an important foundation to sustainable long-term commitment. Part of the
communication strategy should also include a combination of company-wide
messaging, be built into leadership development plans and learning, and factor in to
the annual performance evaluation process.
