Leading Edge: Leadership Development

Registration Open Now!

Do you want to see how your leadership development programs compare to others?  Do you want to hear the latest and greatest in leadership development from practitioners and researchers? Then attend SIOP’s 2021 Leading Edge Consortium (LEC) this fall.  Leading Edge: Leadership Development includes a fantastic array of thought leaders and interactive sessions all focused on helping leaders be more effective. Some of our corporate speakers include Peter Fasolo, the CHRO of Johnson & Johnson; Michael Arena, Vice President of Talent & Development at Amazon Web Services; Bob Lockett, Chief Diversity and Talent Officer, ADP; Adam Bryant, Managing Director of Merryck & Company; Elliott Masie of the MASIE Center; and Karishma Patel Buford, Chief People Officer for OppLoans.  Those from academia include Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic, Harvard Business School; Jay A. Conger, Claremont McKenna College; Rob Cross, Babson College; Amy Edmondson, Harvard Business School; Francesca Gino, Harvard Business School; and Stefanie Johnson, University of Colorado Boulder. It would be hard to find this collection of heavy hitters in leadership development in any other forum.

In addition to our keynote speakers, this year’s LEC includes 1.5- and 3.0-hour practitioner-oriented “how to” workshops as well as 30-minute “quick hit” sessions on specific leadership development topics. The speakers, workshops, sessions, and program for this virtual event are the result of a design team that includes SIOP members with deep expertise in leadership development:

• Mike Benson, General Mills

• Allan Church, Pepsico

• Gordon (Gordy) Curphy, Curphy Leadership Solutions

• David V. Day, Claremont McKenna College

• Alexis Fink, Facebook

• Samantha Guerre, 3M

• Laura Mattimore, Procter & Gamble

• David B. Peterson, 7 Paths Forward

We’d love for you to join us, so please hold the dates on your calendar! More information about the workshops and main conference, as well as registration details, will be coming out in future announcements.
