Future Leadership Competency Requirements: Global Tendencies and Russian Specifics Kathleen Zabelina MBA Program Director – The Moscow University of Finance and Law October, 2012

Agenda Key competencies requirements for business leaders in the next 3 years: Global trends Review of existing competency profile of Russian leaders, and applicability of global findings in context The role of Russian business schools: Practical recommendations for incorporating leadership competency requirements into the learning process When leadership development goes wrong: Why corporations needs to share in the accountability of developing business leaders in Russia

Background Leadership Competencies: Why do they matter? In spite of record unemployment levels across many developed economies, one of the biggest risk that global businesses now face is a talent and skills shortage.* Based on global research studies conducted on this topic, approximately 50% **of current leaders are ineffective in the skills critical for the next three years, and this issue impacts the productivity and bottom line of their firms. Demographics- baby boomers are retiring, and there are not enough competent and experienced managers available to take their place. * Source: 2011 Llyod’s Risk Index ** Source: “Development Dimensions International (DDI) Global Leadership Forecast 2011”

What Makes these Leaders Great?

Current Strengths 1.Interpersonal skills 2.Technical skills 3.Building customer loyalty Top 5 competencies required for the next three years by leaders globally All 5 competencies defined as key for the next three years, share the common aspect of driving the business forward. Top 5 Requirements 1.Fostering creativity and innovation 2.Identifying and developing talent 3.Driving and managing change 4.Coaching and developing others 5.Executing organizational strategy vs. According to a study published in 2012 by Development Dimensions International (DDI), which aimed to measure the perception of the current quality of leaders globally, a significant gap exists between current skill strengths and future requirements.

Global Leadership Competency Findings: Applicability to Russia (+) Stregths 1.Technical skills 2.Decision-making 3.Executing performance results Separate research published in 2006 by Grachev & Bobina specifically analyzed current leadership behaviors and competency levels amongst Russian leaders, that were identified as part of a large cross cultural research program entitled the “Globe Study”. The Globe study findings, as analyzed by Grachev and Bobina, help to build a competency profile for Russian business leaders. Neutral 1.Building relationships 2.Networking 3.Communication skills 4.Team orientation (-) Weakness 1.Innovation 2.Identifying /developing talent 3.Creating strategic vision 4.Risk management Those competencies that were defined as key in the DDI survey, strongly overlap with skill weaknesses of Russian leaders, identified in the Globe study.

Global Leadership Competency Findings: Applicability to Russia -30% of respondents agreed that the top 5 competencies identified as critical for leaders by DDI were fully applicable for Russia. Due to the significant time period that elapsed between Grachev & Bobina’s findings and the publication of DDI’s research, a need was identified to conduct independent research to identify if additional competencies would be key for Russian leaders in the next three years. An online survey was created and distributed to business leaders, HR managers, and MBA faculty in Russia. 54 respondents participated. Key findings include: -43% found DDI’s results somewhat applicable, and 27% indicated that they were not applicable at all. -When asked to select other critical competencies from DDI’s list, 71% chose “Building networks and relationships” and 51% selected “Communication & Interpersonal Skills””.

The Role of Businesses: Leadership Development According to a 2012 study published by the Hay Group, who has been running employee effectiveness studies since 2005 in Russia, 66% of respondents believe that their companies are not able to retain their best talents.* In order for this situation to change, businesses in Russia need to: Align HR Policies and Practices Integrate leadership competency requirements into hiring and promotion processes. Include competency requirements in Performance evaluations and compensation decisions. Identify and develop high potential talent, in order to build a talent pipeline. Align Mission Statements, Corporate Culture & Processes Champion change and innovation as positive drivers for growth. Senior executives to frequently communicate these values and exhibit these behaviors to employees. Design internal processes and procedures that encourage desired behaviors. Partner with External Learning & Development Partners Support business schools by providing internship, research and consulting opportunities to students. Share best practices through guest lecture and networking opportunities. Participate on the advisory councils of business schools and educational associations. *Vyalova, A., Kiryushkina, E., and Shatova, E. (2012).

Conclusion: The quality of senior leadership teams in will become a more important issue to businesses in Russia in the future. Additional Drivers for Change: -According to a 2012 study conducted by Deloitte’s Human Capital Consulting practice, 80%of 455 investment analysts surveyed are now using the quality of a company’s senior management team when assessing its value (p.4). -The current demographic situation will prompt companies to develop their internal talent pipeline. A first round of success stories - that is, a core number of business school graduates or internally developed corporate talent rising to assume executive level positions, will reinforce this best practice. Corporations, in partnership with educational institutions, must assume accountability for improving the quality of the future generation of Russian business leaders. * Holland,S. & Thom,M. (2012).
