Imagine your L&D uses the company's annual Leadership Conference as their TNA exercise. And no I'm not talking about distributing a training wishlist/ survey to be filled by your Top Leaders, Senior Management and Middle Managers. That is not sophisticated at all. I'm talking about having your L&D team to lead the company's growth via innovation. I'm gonna kick off our exploration of how L&D can serve as the strategic enabler for innovation and growth for our company, next. With L&D at the helm, I'm looking to transform the company's trajectory, by empowering the Top Leadership, the Senior Management and the Middle Managers with the required skill sets to thrive in the ever-evolving business landscape. Stay tuned! #StrategicL&D #InnovationandGrowth#ToptoBottomLeadership

According to a survey by the Association for Talent Development, 86% of companies with leadership development programs respond rapidly to changing market conditions, and 75% of these companies outperform their competition. This suggests that mid-level professionals who participate in leadership development initiatives are more likely to advance in their careers due to enhanced decision-making and strategic skills.#careeradvancement #careerdevelopment

Worth a day’s investment of time to come & grow your organizational leadership.I’ll also be one of the breakout sessions speakers talking on creating a T.E.A.M. culture.

Day 1 at the YPO Global Leadership Conference (GLC), here we go!For all you future leaders and those of you in my network who aren’t sure of what the YPO is, let me break it down for you…1️⃣ First of all, the YPO is a collective of people who believe that the world needs better leaders.2️⃣ Given this, point 2 is that we come together as a collective of leaders to become better leaders — we mix and mingle, learn and grow for the benefit of all the people our leadership affects.3️⃣ Lastly (at least for now), of course, there’s an element of networking and growth involved—and a significant function where a bunch of C-suite individuals come together does, but what sets this apart from the rest is that individual business growth isn’t the objective. Instead, we come together to share and learn from each other’s leadership successes and failures.All this to say, I’m more than a little excited to see what this day has in store!#YPOGLC2024

Companies who are intentional about leadership development have more engaged employees, a robust pipeline to pull from for promotions, and a stronger company culture. This is a great article from Forbes about the key elements of a leadership development plan, and it mentions the value of coaching in leadership development. Our clients have found pairing executive coaching with our Emerging Leaders program has greatly increased skill development and retention!https://bit.ly/3XezlUh
