Today’s complex business environment is calling; make that screaming, for more and better executive talent. Yet according to recent research, companies are having trouble finding and developing the talent to meet their needs.

Join Alice Pescuric, an independent consultant in the field of leadership and executive development and consulting partner with Development Dimensions International (DDI) as she leads a discussion on the current trends in the war for leadership talent.

Alice will review the latest research highlights regarding leadership forecast studies from top companies including Hewitt, the Hay Group and DDI. In addition, Alice will also share DDI’s experiences, trends and current best practices in designing executive development experiences based on today’s leadership development needs.

Join us to add your own experiences, insights, best practices, and discuss what you predict for the future and the implications for practitioners in the field of leadership and executive development.
