Leadership & Talent Development - 2nd Annual - 25th & 26th April - Barcelona
Leadership is the single largest determinant of business success. Organisations that excel at cultivating leaders gain an edge over their competition. With globalization driving change, the demand for agile leaders will continue to intensify. Most organisations still can't find or develop leaders fast enough to address the multitude of challenges facing their companies and their people.
According to Aon Hewitt’s “2011 Global Top Companies for Leaders” study, successful companies are passionate and committed to leadership development. Their leadership programs are practical, relevant and aligned with business goals. They show an intense focus on talent, and they are deliberate about hiring, coaching, developing and rewarding success. Finally, leadership development at these organisations is an embedded practice and mindset.

The development leaders receive is also regarded by leaders as ineffective. Only 38% of leaders believe the development they receive is effective and, perhaps most worryingly, globally only 18% of HR professionals believe their organisation has the leadership bench strength it needs to meet future business challenges.
Leadership & Talent Development is the top priority for learning and development teams over the next 12 months, according to a survey published by training firm Video Arts (16/10/2011).
The model of a successful leader has evolved. High-impact leaders of today must have global perspective, international experience and the ability to drive diverse teams. They must understand how to empower people, innovate and have people skills which translate across generations.
Research states that organisations with a strong learning culture are far out-performing their peers. Therefore, everybody should now be re-designing/ viewing their Development frameworks, preparing themselves to take full advantage of future business opportunities.
What worked yesterday isn't working today. Priorities and plans have changed dramatically across every business sector, and leaders are doing their best to react, recover and retool...but they need help!
