The number one mistake leadership development professionals make with emerging leaders programs? How they approach SELECTION.

This episode details how to nail the selection process.

You have to stop:
- Overthinking and overcomplicating your selection process
- Dumping money and resources into SELECTION
- Weeding out enthusiastic applicants

And you have to start:
- Selecting based on self-selection + manager approval
- Dumping money into TRAINING
- Enabling and encouraging enthusiastic talent

Shift your mindset away from exclusivity and toward potential. A strong emerging leaders program is a huge competitive advantage. It helps you build a pipeline of diverse talent and then cultivate that talent. So don't put too much money and time into limiting your pipeline.
