| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of the current study was to investigate the effect of developmental readiness on the perceived individual improvement of leadership development trainees. Developmental readiness can be described as the motivation and ability of someone to engage to developmental experiences. The study utilized a measure consisting of six predictors of developmental readiness, one moderator of organizational support, and a criterion of perceived improvement. In total, 61 participants from a statewide leadership development program provided data for the current study. Results indicated that only internal motivation to is a significant predictor of individual improvement, and there is not a moderating effect of organizational support. Limitations and future research are discussed in detail at the end of the paper. | |
