SIG: Leadership Development: Get into the Director Mindset

McKinsey recently reported that 4 out 10 recently promoted leaders fail or underperform in their new role within 18 months (2021). How do mindset and expectations change from manager to director? What can we, as learning and development professionals, do to help our organizations succeed in supporting high potentials for successful promotion experiences?

If your organization has goals to internally promote and retain top talent, or if you would like to shift into the director mindset yourself, this SIG conversation is for you.

What is a SIG?

A Special Interest Group (SIG) a 60 minute facilitated conversation focused on a specific topic where participants come to reflect, learn, and share with one another. SIGs represent one of the many ways to grow professionally and personally, to network, learn new trends and industry directions, and to take useful information back to your organization.
