We focus leader development, widely used but often critiqued for lacking evidence. Analyzing 60 interviews academic directors leadership centers at top business schools, we find selection programs does align recommendations nor schools high-quality program evaluation. Respondents further indicated a wide variety challenges help explain disconnect between claiming A practicing B.
