08 May, 2013 Succession Management Pre-Conference Seminar
10 May, 2013 Future Proof Your Business – A New Lens on Leadership Development

Leadership research indicates that a leader's ability to innovate is and will remain one of the top 3 capabilities now and in the foreseeable future. This is not something that is the competency du jour, becoming popular or not during different economic cycles. It has become a core capability of an organization to be able to rethink geographic markets, products and services as well as enterprise-wide processes. Leaders need to be able to think strategically and creatively to reinvent their businesses. And leadership today mandates that we build organizational cultures that grow ideas from across the organization, harvest and invest in these ideas in ways that ensure the vitality of the business.

Hear experts and corporate leaders (many from the 2012 Best Companies for Leaders examine the following issues–plus much more–to provide you with the practical take aways, new approaches and tools for leadership development.

• Learning to innovate: developing leaders who can foster a climate of innovation and growth
• Unleash the power of your mid-level leaders: where strategy meets execution
• Harness the systematic use of experiences to develop global leaders
• Social Media: transforming how we develop future leaders
• Reframe the leadership agenda for new business opportunities and challenges
• Help leaders balance the ambiguity in gaining cost efficiencies while generating new business opportunities
• Build organizational cultures that can harvest innovative ideas across the enterprise
• Explore change: developing leaders for the new reality
• Build your network with speakers, and other leadership development professionals.

This conference is a "must attend" for executives charged with leadership development, talent management, human resources, organizational effectiveness, learning and development, succession management and engagement. Line leaders and C-suite executives will also benefit from learning how to identify, develop and coach their future leaders.
