*This virtual dialogue was hosted by DDI India.

The VUCA world today has made change the only constant, and people are looking for strong leadership more than ever. Yet in the low touch economy we live in, developing the leaders for tomorrow who will deliver organizational promise is even more complex.  

Building and reinventing the learning and development strategy with a focus on building a culture of coaching and mentoring is crucial. New Manager Transitions have always been a challenge irrespective of the present situation. Even with mentorship and coaching clearly connected to developing better quality managers, organizations are struggling to engage with their senior leaders who can pass along their knowledge and experiences to the next generation of leaders. The complexity of managing both learner and organizational needs is compounding in this environment.

In this dialogue, DDI and leading CHROs will explore:

  • Learning practices being adopted for new managers
  • Challenges faced by organizations in developing quality leadership programs and building a culture of coaching and mentorship
  • Expert perspectives on changing trends in leadership development strategies
