CPTD: Career & Leadership
Development
A talent development professional joins an organization that does not have a
well-defined leadership development program. The talent development
professional must convince management to design and implement a
leadership development program. Which argument would best help the talent
development professional to convince management?
a. All the major competitors of the organization have a leadership
development program.
b. A leadership development program gives every employee the opportunity to
become a manager.
c. A successful leadership development program makes an organization
process oriented and not result oriented.
d. Organizations with successful leadership development programs have a
high retention rate.
d. Studies have shown that organizations with higher quality leadership are up
to three times more likely to retain more employees (Boatman and Wellins,
2014). Leadership development programs usually focus on high-potential
employees. Other organizations having similar programs may not be enough
to convince the management of the benefits of these programs. Organizations
that have successful leadership development programs are result oriented.
An organization hires a talent development professional to design a
leadership development program that is aligned with the organizational
objectives. What should the talent development professional identify as a
prerequisite for a successful leadership development program?
a. Being ready to hire successful leaders from outside
,b. Being flexible in defining organizational goals rather than relying on
standards
c. Being focused on present leadership requirements rather than future needs
d. Being aware of leadership gaps and its effect on organizational growth
d. Organizations should have fully engaged senior managers who recognize
leadership gaps as an obstacle to the execution of strategy. This is one of the
key factors that distinguishes organizations that have successful leadership
development programs. Organizations should institute standards and
establish, track, measure, and evaluate goals. Organizations should look for
the skills required for future success and recognize the importance of having a
pipeline of experienced, high-quality leaders to fill positions, knowing that
having a vibrant succession plan may be better than hiring from the outside.
A talent development professional is assigned the task of building a
competency framework for future leaders in an organization. The talent
development professional seeks to analyze the development needs of the
organization and the leadership requirements for the future. Which aspect
should the talent development professional most focus on while identifying the
future leadership requirements of the organization?
a. The leadership styles of famous business leaders
b. Past business issues faced by the organization
c. Expected changes in technology and competition
d. The organization's learning and development initiatives
c. External changes such as technology, competition, regulatory, industry, and
demographic alter the requirements of leadership in an organization. It is
important to focus on the issues the organization is likely to face in the future
to determine the competencies future leaders will need rather than focus on
the past business issues. The leadership styles of famous business leaders or
an organization's learning and development initiatives do not influence future
leadership requirements.
, An organization faces a high attrition rate because of factors such as a high
level of stress, lack of appreciation, and limited scope for professional
development. The organization analyzes the reasons for the high attrition rate
and introduces measures that aim to decrease the rate to 5 percent within the
next 12 months. In this scenario, what kind of goal has the organization set?
a. A process goal
b. An outcome goal
c. A programmatic goal
d. An interim goal
b. In the given scenario, the organization has set an outcome goal. Outcome
goals are based on the needs of the organization and the expectations of
senior leaders. Interim goals are indicators of final goals and progress to the
end result. A programmatic goal is related to the details required to start and
implement specific programs. A process goal helps to achieve other bigger
goals.
Which statement accurately differentiates between the interim goals and
outcome goals of an organization?
a. Interim goals are aligned with an organization's mission statement, whereas
outcome goals are aligned with an organization's vision statement.
b. Interim goals are related to the details required to start and implement
specific training programs, whereas outcome goals are indicators of the
progress made to reach the result.
c. Interim goals are indicators of final goals, whereas outcome goals measure
the results of an initiative on organizational goals.
