This webinar discusses the challenges of digital transformation that many organizations encounter, and how leadership solutions can make a difference.
Statistics show that 2/3 of women in STEM roles quit within 15 years. Why, and what can individuals and companies do to advance and support women in tech?
Many of the challenges to leadership in the technology industry are data-driven, regulatory, ethical, and innovation-based. Yet often, the greatest challenge of all is organizational culture.
As the world changes, your organization must shift to new ways of working. In order to successfully continue to innovate, your organization must take a balanced approach to business, technology, and the development of the people leading the change.
The ever-changing demand for specific technical skills can bring about rapid change and growth — as well as high staff turnover. Your organization can create longevity and stability through executive team development, strengthening people skills among technical leaders, and building a culture that can address today’s challenges head-on and adapt quickly to whatever comes next.
The skills that make strong individual contributors in technical roles don’t always translate into management abilities.
Technology leaders — from executives to first-time managers — require new perspectives and skillsets to succeed. Crafting a leadership development plan that will support them through the transition from technical expert to manager can net huge gains for organizations. This plan will help install technical leaders who not only possess the functional expertise to innovate, but who also have the people skills necessary to rally the troops.
Partner with us to address challenges and accelerate the development of your technical leaders, helping to shift your organizational culture, create higher-performing teams, and improve business outcomes.
