� If the world has changed, then how we lead has to change too. � Now more than ever, the best leaders can be defined as those who "know what to do when they don't know what to do". � In an age of uncertainty and turbulence, a new type of leader is emerging in the business world. And that means that leadership development needs to change too. � Is it even possible to teach the type of leadership skills needed these days? Some of the world's leading thinkers on leadership development believe that new approaches could produce incredible results. � This session will look at some of the latest research and most cutting edge leadership development approaches being used around the world. If you're bold enough, there might just be something here for you!

LEADERSHIP TALENT MANAGEMENT &

Building Better Talent Faster — The Secrets of One Page Talent Management

MA

RC

� Executives are unhappy with the state of their company's talent and it's talent building practices � This is surprising since how to build great talent is not a secret- the academi research tells us what we need to do� The challenge is that we've ignored the science and made HR practices so bureaucratic and complex that they don't work � Solving this challenge means radically simplifying Talent Management practices by finding the shortest path from the science to the business goal � ``One Page Talent Management´´ describes how to decrease complexity, improve accountability for results and increase the transparency of talent practices � Learn how this radical new approach is being adopted by large and small companies worldwide, and how your company can start to benefit from it today
