We live in an age of massive disruption for everyone and every organization. All of us need to develop new capabilities now in our work and personal lives. (Think about it. Aren’t you being stretched in ways you’ve never been stretched before?) Individual and collective growth at scale is a necessity for organizations to thrive. Not optional. Not nice to have if you can find some budget. Human development is a necessity. Now. And people know it, too. The working parents acting as teachers for their children at home—they know it. The managers dealing with virtual teams for the first time—they know it. And the senior leaders trying to “keep the plane flying” through a storm unlike any in history—they know it, too.
So how can leaders actually accelerate the development of their people and create organizations and teams that become incubators of human potential? And how can leaders walk the talk of development themselves?
Drawing on decades of their own research and consulting, Andy Fleming and his colleagues have gained some actionable insight regarding these questions. In their award-winning book An Everyone Culture: Becoming a Deliberately Developmental Organization (HBR Press, named “Best Management and Workplace Culture Book of 2016” by 800-CEO-READ), they describe and deconstruct what cutting edge leaders and organizations do to create a culture in which everyone grows, from the C-suite to the frontlines, as part of their regular everyday work. In this talk, Andy will distill “lessons learned” that can be applied in any organization and profession, in every field and family.
