Trends in Executive Development: Building Critical Thinking and Business Acumen

WebinarEvery eight seconds, one Baby Boomer retires, many of them as organizational leaders. With 11% less Gen Xers in the workplace than Baby Boomers, and the Gen Y crowd largely years away from leadership positions, now is the time for business to consider the increasing void of executive vacancies.

Are your future leaders ready to take the reins? Do you understand the strengths and weaknesses of tomorrow’s leaders and how you can help your organization stay ahead of the curve? Does your training support the competitive advantage of having a workforce that’s really ready to lead?

Join us for this Training Industry Webinar, sponsored by Pearson, to discuss key findings from a 2009/2010 leadership trends survey. The panel will discuss two significant areas of focus – critical thinking and business acumen – and help you ensure your organization’s current and future leaders are properly prepared. We’ll show you how assessments and interactive training content can address these key competencies and accelerate the development of emerging leaders.

During this interactive webinar our expert panelists will help you:

  • Explore the challenges and current state of training leadership
  • Learn about the top competencies, especially those most currently lacking, in today’s emerging leaders
  • Understand why today’s leading executives find a blended approach to professional development a valuable commodity
  • Discover how interactive training content enables leadership development

Attendees will be provided with the 2009/2010 Trends in Executive Development Summary Report.

Register today for this free, one-hour webinar.
