January 23rd, 2025. Ottawa, ON. – I.Liv Performance Inc. is proud to announce the launch of its innovative “I.Liv & Lead for Outcomes” program and performance system, designed to address the pressing need for transformation in leadership development.
With its first corporate partner already onboard, I.Liv is redefining how organizations cultivate leadership by focusing on empowering individuals at every level to drive measurable business outcomes. By taking a bottom-up performance approach—rooted in the belief that organizations don’t change, people do—I.Liv introduces a transformative method that fuels organizational performance through the development of high-performing, outcome-driven leaders.
Leadership development is at a turning point, demanding bold, transformative action to close the gap between strategy and execution while empowering leaders to deliver measurable outcomes. According to a recent study published in the Harvard Business Review (HBR), over 50% of leadership programs fail to deliver their intended results. These failures are often attributed to outdated approaches that focus too heavily on interpersonal skills while neglecting applied business acumen and strategic impact. Programs also falter due to participants’ burnout and overloaded calendars, a lack of sustainable learning practices, and limited scalability, which results in cherry-picking participants and diminishing overall impact.
There is a call for transformation of the leadership development industry. The demand for leadership development is high and growing, as organizations strive to enhance performance, yet, only about half (53%) of respondents rate their leaders as ‘very effective’, signaling a gap between organizational needs and the outcomes of current programs. Additionally, according to a recent study published in the Harvard Business Review (HBR), over 50% of leadership programs fail to deliver their intended results.
