Frequently Asked Questions

Recruiting, Retaining, and Transforming Talent for Exponential Business Growth

What is growth leadership?

Growth leadership is the ability to lead the business not only for where it is today, but for where it is going next. Growth leaders build teams, strengthen accountability, develop other leaders, align structure to strategy, and prepare the organization for increasing complexity.

Strategic Talent Partners uses the Growth Leadership Model™ to help companies connect business strategy with the leadership structure required to support sustainable growth. The model identifies leadership needs across four stages: Foundational, Emerging, Scaling, and Enterprise. At each stage, the company’s leadership expectations evolve, from leading individuals, to leading leaders, to leading functions, to leading the enterprise.
