Besides, the social changes and the changes and developments in technology demand such people who can manage their tasks in a way as needed. This necessitates making executive development programs, so that the employees may be trained and equipped for performing in a desired way.

Also, the need for executive development is felt when the factor of obsolescence is to be considered. At this stage, it is worthwhile to note it’s important for a manager to keep himself updated with new demands and challenges, so that he can cope with them whenever they occur.

Executive development becomes necessary when there is increase in management tasks and leadership responsibilities. This would help a business to meet the demands arising from social or technological changes and manage them in a better way being ready to meet the challenges in advance.
