Leadership development is supposed to transform your organization—but what if it's just draining your budget?

In this episode of ScaleUP & Grow, Mary Ricketts exposes the #1 reason most leadership programs fall flat: they skip the diagnostic step. No needs assessment. No clarity. Just assumptions.

📌 Pain Points We Tackle Head-On:

• Leaders sitting through training they don’t need—and checking out.
• Organizations investing in leadership programs that look good but don’t stick.
• Teams still battling the same performance, communication, and engagement issues post-training.
• Senior leaders burned out from putting out fires instead of building up people.

The result?
Wasted time.
Wasted dollars.
And missed opportunities to build the kind of leadership culture that actually drives performance.

🎯 In this powerful episode, you'll uncover:

• The short- and long-term impact of skipping needs assessments
• Why generic training hurts more than it helps
• What smart organizations do before they roll out leadership development
• How to start asking better questions—and stop guessing
