Leadership Conference
Developing Leadership Talent: How Organizations Prepare their Present and Future Leadership
The Wharton School
Philadelphia
June 7, 2007
This one-day intensive conference is devoted to exchanging ideas about how managers and organizations can best build their present and future leadership. Presenters draw upon their own organization's experience to find, identify, recruit, prepare, and train their talent for positions of responsibility. Where are the best sources of talent? What are the best development experiences for building leadership capacities? When is the time to invest in leadership development? Who has the best programs for fostering leadership - and what are the secrets of their success? The presenters bring not only the developmental methods of their enterprise but also their own personal developmental experiences into active dialogue with conference participants.
