„Leadership significantly shapes the performance of a company. Leadership behaviour is the decisive competitive factor.“The MLI specialises in the design and implementation of tailor-made leadership development programmes.
Leadership is the changing force in business life. Effective leadership develops strategically important ideas and inspires and encourages people to explore new paths and develop their potential. Leadership is the decisive factor in ensuring that companies adapt to changing conditions and thus maintain their future viability.Leadership Development refers to the targeted support and development of managers in order to improve their skills, competencies and leadership qualities. The term was coined in the 20th century by management thinkers such as Douglas McGregor and Warren Bennis. The aim of leadership development is to enable managers to lead more effectively and inspiringly, thereby allowing them to create more optimal conditions for the implementation of strategic goals.People in leadership roles set the standard for how employees behave. They act as role models for how their team members work and drive change.
Nowadays, leadership must increasingly establish communities of purpose to achieve common goals – whether that’s inter or intra departmentally, when working on overarching projects or collaborating with external partners.The faster and more effectively this community building occurs, the more successfully an organisation can operate. With Neurosocial leadership, these high demands can be more effectively met than with conventional leadership approaches.Further, leadership is increasingly becoming a success factor in an organisation’s ability to find, and retain, talent. Employees might join an organisation for a wide variety of reasons, but then leave because they are dissatisfied with management.That's why tailored leadership development is so important: it establishes reliable leadership standards and thus strengthens not only competitive strength or an organisation, but also its attractiveness to potential employees.
Leadership development is a targeted process to strengthen and further develop managers. A key success level of this process is the creation of personalised development programmes, which consider the specific culture and orientation of a company as well as the strengths and potential of the individual managers.
Effective leadership development includes a practice-oriented discovery process, continuous feedback and coaching, as well as the integration of practical experiences and real challenges.
Successful leadership development will see managers continuously improving their skills and leadership qualities, leading teams better, effectively implementing company goals and motivating employees, which ultimately leads to improved company performance and higher employee engagement.

Management focuses on the efficient distribution and administration of existing resources and processes. Management is strongly influenced by the idea of efficiency: achieving the desired success with minimal effort (although this is often measured in financial terms). Leadership, on the other hand, is a transformative force. Leadership drives forward new ideas and develops shared visions across departmental boundaries. Leadership questions and breaks down existing silos, abandons the old and dares to try new things. It should inspire and encourage people to engage in meaningful change.
Leadership Development is a crucial part of corporate strategy and helps create a culture of continuous learning and personal development to meet the diverse needs of a changing world.
Leadership Development refers to the strategic and continuous process of specifically developing individuals into effective leaders. The focus is on systematically imparting the necessary knowledge and skills, attitudes and behaviours that shape a uniform, reliable leadership culture. Various methods and programmes are used that aim to identify, train and support leadership talent to increase the performance of an organisation, promote innovation and ensure long-term success.
Effective leadership has a crucial impact on employee performance, motivation and retention. It helps create a positive corporate culture and enables organisations to adapt to the challenges and changes in the business environment. But leadership must be honed and continually adapted to ensure it remains effective and relevant.
Neurosocial Leadership combines leadership with insights from neuroscience and social psychology. By developing a deep understanding of the needs and behaviours of oneself, employees and business partners, Neurosocial Leadership helps leaders build more effective working relationships and purpose-driven communities. The approach views leadership as a two-way process in which managers and employees communicate and work together to achieve desirable goals. This creates sustainable positive social dynamics that improve employee performance, motivation and satisfaction and promote a positive work culture.
The success of leadership development programmes can be measured using specific key figures that are collected before and after a programme’s implementation (e.g. using the MLI Pulse Check). These key figures measure the trust of employees in leadership work (leadership effectiveness), employee engagement or employee loyalty. Achieving leadership goals is also an important indicator of success.
There are various methods and approaches to leadership development, including formal training, seminars, online courses, coaching, mentoring, 360-degree feedback, self-study, books, and participation in leadership projects. The choice depends on the context: what are the strategic goals and current challenges of the company in which leadership plays a crucial role?
An effective leadership development programme requires careful planning and implementation. One must consider and develop the following:
Developing leadership skills requires self-reflection, learning and practical experience. You can improve your leadership skills through training, education, coaching, mentoring, peer feedback, and taking on responsibility in leadership roles.
