TOPIC: 

World-class Leadership Development on a Shoestring Budget

PRESENTATION SUMMARY:

How does a small Human Resources (HR) team or an "HR Department of One" create a world-class leadership development program on little to no budget?  To meet company goals, organizations need a plan for growth and strong leaders to guide the company.  But the talent pipeline is thin and, although recognized as important, there is often little focus on leadership development.  This threatens the ability to achieve long-term success and potential trouble lies ahead.

Top performing companies identify and nurture talent, have a formal talent review and planning process, and actively manage a pool of successors for business-critical roles.  In this session, participants will:

• Learn how to demonstrate the strategic and business value of implementing a leadership development program, like Fortune 50 companies, for little or no cost
• Understand how to identify business needs and establish performance metrics to determine the Return on Investment (ROI) of the program
• See how to partner with company leadership to uncover resources needed to develop a world-class leadership program
• Learn how to create a motivational environment, so employees will take initiative in their career development and demonstrate the skills necessary to meet company goals

In short, this session will provide you with practical and effective ways to build and support “World-class Leadership Development on a Shoestring Budget."
