303 Panel: Essential Skills for Learning Leadership
2:30 PM - 3:30 PM Wednesday, April 20
Salon 15
Leaders at all levels and across departments are grappling with employee demands for greater flexibility as we all adjust to a more digital and dispersed workplace. Learning leaders are adapting our approach as we attempt to anticipate the skills and behaviors our organizations will need to thrive.
In this panel discussion, three learning leaders join host Pamela Hogle, The Learning Guild’s program manager for the Learning 2022 Conference, in a conversation about the essential skills that learning leaders need for themselves, their teams, and their organizations’ leadership. We’ll explore the role of learning leadership in upskilling & reskilling employees, and influencing culture to meet the evolving needs of our learners, our colleagues, and our leaders.
In this session, you will learn:
- How learning leadership is unique in organizations
- The importance of having a big-picture view and strategic approach
- How your learning leadership peers have applied valuable leadership lessons
- Which new skills are essential to becoming effective, authentic modern leaders in the post-pandemic workplace environment
- How and why to leverage cross-departmental relationships to strengthen performance and resolve challenges
- Where learning leaders see L&D in the corporate “org chart” and how our work impacts the entire organization, from the C-suite to the newest entry-level employee
