As talent development professionals, we have to find a way to bridge the traditional classroom perceptions with experiences outside the classroom in order to develop strong bench strength for leadership in our organizations.

During this roundtable panel discussion, senior talent and leadership development executives will share stories, case studies, lessons learned and best practices on a framework for managers to have performance improving conversations with those that work with them. And, perhaps more importantly what employees expect and need from their managers.

Discussion Points:
To help guide the roundtable discussion, our facilitator will focus the panelists on some or all of the following discussion points...

⭐ What are recent trends with development solutions trends for middle managers?

⭐ Which are specific leadership skills and competencies for middle managers?
