About the Webinar

This is session 2 in our series, Propel Your Future Leaders. Be sure to explore the other sessions as well:

In the second of our series of webinars on how to propel your future leaders, we’ll explore how empathy and identity contribute to a sense of value alignment and the ability to effectively develop your next generation of leaders.

As our research on emerging leaders suggests, today’s young professionals prioritize value alignment between their personally-held beliefs and their organization’s mission and driving principles. To help potential leaders find personal meaning and greater value alignment in leadership roles, it’s important their organizations help them to reflect on their “why” and on how leading in your organization might relate to their individual goals, sense of identity, and greater purpose. In this webinar, we share practical strategies you can use to ensure each team member understands how they can make a difference in bringing their personal values to their work.

What You’ll Learn

In this webinar, you’ll learn:

  • What our research found that emerging leaders value, and how defining and articulating your organization’s purpose can help you better recruit and retain young professionals
  • Strategies for building empathy and human-centered leadership to help you attract and cultivate young leaders and build their sense of value alignment
  • Ways to personalize development to support your emerging leaders with tools and assessments that provide context for their personal development journey
  • How you can listen to and elevate emerging leaders’ voices to show that you value their thoughts, contributions, and perspectives

Our human-centered, research-based, highly individualized leadership development programs and solutions can help you attract and retain your future leaders by connecting their purpose with your organizational goals and increasing their sense of value alignment.
