Leadership development** is a central building block for sustainable corporate success. In the context of modern challenges, particularly digitalisation and the use of artificial intelligence, this area is becoming increasingly important. The innovative KIROI Step 9 concept takes the development of leadership skills to the next level in a targeted manner - towards the so-called competence elite. The focus is on practical support, individual development plans and targeted skills development.<\/p>\n

Leadership development: importance and challenges<\/h2>\n

In today's working world, managers are not only managers, but also initiators and pioneers of change. This considerably increases the demands on their skills. Leadership development accompanies this process through systematic measures such as coaching, mentoring, workshops and on-the-job learning [1][3][5].<\/p>\n

A typical example from the financial sector shows how managers are trained to integrate AI-supported decision-making processes in a safe and ethically responsible manner. In this way, they learn to fulfil regulatory requirements and protect human values at the same time [2][6]. In the logistics sector, leadership development supports the optimisation of route planning and resource management through the targeted use of AI algorithms, which reduces costs and makes processes more efficient [2][6]. In the energy sector, on the other hand, training promotes the competent use of digital control systems and automated analyses that lead to more sustainable use of resources [2][6].<\/p>\n

KIROI Step 9 as a milestone in management development<\/h2>\n

The KIROI approach supports companies in specifically developing management skills in dealing with artificial intelligence. Step 9 of the programme focuses on analysing existing skills and developing individual development plans that combine technical skills with leadership qualities [2][4][6].<\/p>\n

Skills such as productive collaboration with AI systems are taught in practical workshops, digital learning modules and coaching sessions. The focus is not only on technical knowledge, but also on promoting agility and a willingness to learn digitally. Managers are empowered to overcome resistance within their teams and actively shape innovation processes [2][4].<\/p>\n

BEST PRACTICE with one customer (name hidden due to NDA contract)<\/b> a programme specifically geared towards AI skills was established in an energy supply company. Through targeted coaching and practical application scenarios, managers were able to expand their technological skills, which improved collaboration with technical specialists and strengthened a corporate culture that promotes innovation. The result was a future-proof management team that is actively shaping the digital transformation.<\/i><\/p>\n

Diverse methods for sustainable leadership development<\/h3>\n

Management development draws on a wide range of methods to cover different learning needs and promote sustainable development. Formal training formats such as seminars, workshops and leadership programmes can be combined with informal formats such as mentoring and coaching. Learning on the job is another important building block in which managers can test and reflect on new skills directly in their day-to-day work [1][3][7].<\/p>\n

For example, job rotation in a manufacturing company enables division managers to familiarise themselves with different areas of the company and thus gain a holistic view of business processes. At the same time, they expand their network and gain valuable experience in different management situations. At the same time, mentoring strengthens personal development through dialogue with experienced managers who provide targeted feedback and suggestions [1][5][7].<\/p>\n
