This research project focused on the measurement of the effect of an organization' s leadership development program relating to employees' perceived improvement in job satisfaction and intent to stay. There are three core elements of the leadership development program: teamwork, commitment to the team and leadership. The literature review focused on research of the three core elements and why they are important in creating leaders and leadership within an organization.The focus of the study was only in the Canadian Operations of the organization. The survey was designed to measure the relationship between the program' s core elements and employees ' job satisfaction and intent to stay. The majority of the results poorly supported the hypotheses due to the very small survey population. There were some promising results with positive correlations between intent to stay for ethical considerations of the program and a company that offers such training.There are opportunities for the organization to use these results and develop a continual improvement process for the program to focus on, developing the connections between the core elements and how the program is initiated within the organization. There were several limitations such as small population size, the research questions themselves and focus on just the Canadian Operations.
