Manila, 16 January 2025 — Your further development as an adult and a leader starts with a decision only you can make.

Story

It happened over the past two decades. A giant window has opened up on supporting adult human development. Before that, developmental research into humans was mostly focused on the stages that children pass through on their way through childhood to adolescence and adulthood. Now, attention has grown for developmental stages that adults can navigate on the road to maximizing their potential as humans. 

This is good news because our world is crying out for fully developed humans of all ages to get together and solve our pressing problems in workplaces and at city, national, and international levels. Starting the new year is a particularly important time to review our own development against our vision and our potential. How can we continue our adult human development this year?

For leaders, this is especially important, and also urgent. We need to transform into effective leaders—to bring out our best—at a time that the world around us is getting more complex and uncertain. Some might add volatile. As we set out to help others create positive changes, we need to look after our own further development too. Now, at the beginning of the new year, is an excellent time to give that our full attention.

Challenge

So how can you check where you are in your adult human development journey and explore your next growth steps? We offer a detailed assessment that will answer that question for you as part of our leadership coaching programs like the Leader in Transition Program. The insight you gain will help you to progress from ethnocentric to worldcentric and integral stages of development, where your leadership potential is optimized. 

In our coaching programs, you will develop a deep understanding of where you are now in the adult human development journey, and compare that with where you want to go as a leader. There is so much to learn to keep growing and to help your colleagues in the workplace to grow their leadership abilities too. This doesn’t happen by itself, obviously. Your curiosity and commitment are needed.

Opening yourself to your further development as a leader has many rewards. You will transform into a leader who is more confident, skilled, and resilient to tackle the most daunting challenges in your workplace and beyond. We can’t wait to discuss this with you and hear about the kind of leadership you want to develop. Simply set up a free strategy call.

You can pursue your further development through exclusive one-to-one coaching programs, starting with the Leader in Transition Program and, alternatively, by joining a community of leaders where you grow together through leadership challenges. If the latter fits with your style and resources, please join us in the Grow3Leaders community of practice. To take on the leadership challenges there, we invite you to ask three colleagues to join you and form a Collab.
