Presenters: Danielle Eldridge, Principal Learning Partner, Harvard Business Publishing

Time: 5:30 – 6:30pm CT

Developing a strong leadership pipeline is an important value driver for an organization. No matter how many great leaders a company has, more are needed. Globally, billions of dollars are invested annually in leadership solutions such as leadership coaching, succession planning, purposeful job movement, mentoring, action-learning, and leadership development programs. These leadership offerings are considered the “fuel” that builds strong leaders.
In this executive forum, we will look at how one organization – Harvard Business Publishing – works with its clients to build leadership programs. Here are some questions we’ll discuss in the forum:
- What’s the overall mission and purpose of HBP and how does your team and role fit within the mission?
- What leadership model/approach do you use to guide the curriculum design of the leadership programs HBP offers?
- Most learning and development offerings are based on an underlying learning model. What model(s) do you use?
- How does your organization engage with clients? What consulting model/approach do you use?
- How does HBP go about conducting needs analyses to understand client needs?
- Walk us through a typical program design – how do you move from needs analysis to objectives to curriculum to delivery to evaluation?
- What did you learn at UTD that set you up for success and what advice would you give current students on maximizing the program?
