Today’s landscape for performance management demands a much more brain-friendly, human-centric approach that meets people where they already are. Hear about how experts cultivate a high-performing organization — all while making it more human.

The last few years have been turbulent for leaders across the globe. To overcome uncertainty, we need to evolve the approach to leadership development. In this session, learn how to future-proof your leadership pipeline.

When Joe Whittinghill came into his role as general manager for talent, learning, and insight at Microsoft, the tech giant’s leadership model was characteristically thorough. There were eight competencies leaders needed to succeed, 10 behaviors that marked inclusive diversity, five things employees had to do in order to flourish, and over 100 skills you needed to train on, depending on your profession.

Discover the power of growth mindset and how HP is embedding it into their leadership DNA to drive culture change.

Nothing helps organizational change succeed quite like growth mindset. Research shows that when companies empower their people with a growth mindset, they are more likely to view change as an exciting challenge, rather than a demotivating threat.

HP is one of those trailblazers. In partnership with NeuroLeadership Institute, they have designed and implemented a whole new strategy for leadership, including a research-driven set of leadership principles. This framework has had a measurable impact on engagement, growth, and the broader company culture at HP.

Join Mike and David to review the specifics of this initiative, how it was delivered, and the lessons HP learned along the way.

Leadership development has ballooned into a $16 billion industry, with archives of conflicting literature and thousands of complex models.

Despite this intense focus and investment, the effectiveness of leadership development has steadily declined for years. With substantial change and uncertainty in the marketplace, the need for a coherent strategy only grows more urgent.

Join Dr. David Rock (Director, NeuroLeadership Institute) to discover how insights from neuroscience mitigate complexity and improve leadership development. Participants will explore a new strategy to define, build, and embed leadership skills across an organization based on the science of learning. Dr. Rock will also share how large organizations use neuroscience research to inform their practices today.[/fusion_text]

LinkedIn_Image_600x400Every year the field of talent management goes through change as it responds to evolving market conditions, shifts in technology and changes in the nature of work.

We expect 2016 to be a year of faster changes in how we think about and manage talent than we’ve ever seen before…

1. Rating-less performance management goes mainstream. The evolution of performance management hit a tipping point in 2015, with a growing number of bellwether organizations publicly abandoning giving people formal performance ratings. This happened faster than most people predicted.

Traditional leadership development has been inefficient for some time.

Recent Institute for Corporate Productivity (i4cp) research show this trend is continuing downward. We demand more results from our leaders, but develop them with flawed processes. Fortunately breakthroughs in the neuroscience of learning are giving us ways to dramatically simplify and create a more coherent approach to leadership development.

Join Dr. David Rock (Director, NeuroLeadership Institute) for a webinar that examines a new direction. His presentation will dig into high-impact tools, research frameworks and solutions that tackle this deceptively complex talent challenge.
