Learning Leaders SIG
Talent Development leaders are crucial in ensuring productivity exists in the workplace. With the right environment this challenging task is both achievable and manageable. Without the right environment, it can be overwhelming or impossible to achieve. The February Learning Leaders SIG will discuss the attributes needed for a good working culture and the leader’s pivotal role and responsibility in achieving it and maintaining it. Specific examples will be provided of what strategies work and those that don't. The discussion will also entail what influence Talent Development Leaders can/should bring to the organizations they serve. Convener: Leah Cridlin MORE With Rochelle Thompson, Founder/CEO of Link Communications, LLC. She teams with organizations in building productive cultures, enhancing employees’ soft-skills, and increasing safety in the workplace. WHEN WHERE COST and REGISTRATION | Unlock Your OD Potential
