  3. Assessing the current reality of competencies and capabilities at each level – potential and performance
  4. Identifying and selecting participants for development (and identifying any necessary hires)
  5. Designing your leadership development structures and processes
  6. Delivering leadership development
  7. Supporting ongoing learning, development and performance management
  8. Evaluating success and creating a feedback loop to enhance structures and processes
