The Do’s and Don’ts of Leadership Development: Global Survey Insights

42% of emerging leaders report they had inadequate or ineffective professional development prior to their first leadership role.

In today’s landscape of multigenerational workforces, virtual offices, and ever-evolving skills gaps — is your training doing enough to prepare your future leaders? 

Join Dan Rust, Vice President of Global Leadership and Organizational Development at Infopro Learning and Matt Bradley, Senior Learning and Development Advisor at OpenSesame for a thought provoking discussion on the importance of providing comprehensive leadership development training and what current programs may be lacking.

In this webinar, you will learn:

  • How to identify current leadership skill gaps
