Leading, Learning, & Training in a Digital Age

Digital It means so many things to so many people. In terms of business drivers, it emerges in the form of digital strategy, the need to offer customers/consumers multiple channels to engage with the business, or the drive for digital services. In organizational culture, it shows up in ever increasing demands for collaboration, innovation and inter-generational understanding, as digital natives enter the work-force in greater numbers.

Developing Great Leaders

Today's managers must act as leaders who build collaborative enterprises that respond effectively to ever-changing, more competitive business needs. With shifting market demographics and advanced technology, leaders are required to not only be nimble and quick, but also highly strategic and influential. These attributes transcend business operations, as "great" leaders are primarily required to coach and develop their teams. This workshop will explore leader-team relations that ultimately transform managers into dynamic leaders, who in turn inspire and mobilize high performing teams.


The Importance of Managing Cultural Diversity and Inclusion

Building and fostering diverse and inclusive work cultures is quintessential for companies that want to thrive in today's global marketplace. This workshop delves into the power and premise of collaborative relationships across organizations that aspire to celebrate cultural differences and embrace cultural similarities.  Participants will explore dimensions of diversity and inclusive approaches that bridge cross-cultural divides in a way that yields engaged individuals, highly performing teams, and ultimately a culture of respect and acceptance.


Recruiting Top Talent

This session will provide a comprehensive and in-depth review of talent management and organizational development. This includes but is not limited to hiring and selection, talent development, talent management systems, and competency modeling. Starting with a look at several aspects of wellbeing, such as social, financial, and physical factors, this session introduces support systems for establishing a healthy, productive work-life balance. This parlays into specific guidance for how to attract the great talent that will benefit from such a positive, well-rounded employee experience. Additionally, how to identify key competencies to develop effective talent management systems and how to attract, interview, select and onboard top talent.


The Coach Approach Leader

Senior leaders in non-human resource functions represented 80% of the survey population so the voice of the business is clearly being heard, and for most of these leaders, creating coaching cultures is top-of-mind. The surveyed leaders believed that seismic shifts in their organizations' performance are possible if coaching is ingrained in their culture. The leaders believe that a coaching culture increases focus on developing others and managing performance; increases sharing and utilization of knowledge; leads to more participative and transparent decision-making; and makes learning and development a top priority.
The effective management of coaching as a strategic initiative appears to be lagging, as coaching needs to be more fully integrated with talent management and other leadership development initiatives. The expectations for what coaching can deliver still exceed what is being achieved. When leaders were asked what outcomes they expected from coaching and how effectively these outcomes were being realized, wide gaps emerged. Creating coaching cultures requires a new approach to change.
