In North America, management team is very weak, many leaders do not understand their own function/ responsibilities. Majority of them are politicians, and in some cases the political skills is what helped them on climbing up, not performance or leadership skills. Coaching, onboarding, mentoring are not regular practices. The company tries to launch some training programs but it never really helps on developing the competences needed for many roles. Some special program -like emerging leader program or things like that - are more to “manage” talents expectations and keep them in their role waiting for career promises that will never become reality. You cannot count on your leader to support you in challenging situation. But if something goes wrong the blames falls on you. Too many layers, too many functions, too many decision makers, which makes impossible to deliver real changes because they are never aligned on priorities and common targets. Many people not performing on their roles, but that seem to be ok and that results in overloading the ones who are working well and engaged - great resources are burning out. The company preaches for diversity, but in higher management positions it is not what you will see. Actually, in many situations, a skilled women usually loses management positions that match their profile for less skilled males. And people sponsored by special sponsors are likely to get well paid positions - which explains the lack of leadership abilities in many people from the management team.
