This study employed Clark and Estes's (2008) gap analysis framework to explore the knowledge, motivation, and organizational influences within leadership development in a business unit of a technology company. The literature review identified assumed influences examined through qualitative data collection and secondary quantitative data collection methods. Findings from the interviews and organizational documents verified and validated the assumed as well as emergent new influences, pointing to gaps in performance. The organization lacks a shared understanding and definition of leadership development and clear communication on the outcome and payoff present for employees that engage with LDP. This prominent technology company is sub-optimized as the overarching culture emerged by default rather than by design. The multitude of organizational heritages that shape the company define and perceive LD from the cultural frame of their prior firms and organizational decisions exist within an individual rather than a cultural context. Furthermore, secondary data pointed to the employees' unfavorable perceptions around the presence of professional development and career growth opportunities within the organization. The study offered several recommendations to address the identified assumed and emergent gaps for the organization to better achieve business performance goals and optimize organizational outcomes. Founded on the findings and corresponding recommendations, the study developed a comprehensive, integrated implementation and evaluation plan utilizing Kirkpatrick and Kirkpatrick's (2016) New World Model. Additionally, the study proposed a collaborative program comprised of several stakeholder groups and led by a task force with representation from each stakeholder group to implement and measure the effectiveness of the recommendations.
