As talent leaders and practitioners, we share a secret: Grouping together a bunch of high-performing individuals does not automatically lead to a high-performing team.
So, why don’t we directly target insights at the team level to inform our talent development strategies?
In this webinar panel discussion, we’ll explore why understanding both individual and team dynamics is essential for a well-rounded talent development strategy, and how generating data on performance at the team level gives us a whole new entry point to meaningfully influence organizational effectiveness.
By the end of this session, participants will:
- Learn how collective leadership patterns emerge
- Explore how team effectiveness can accelerate—or constrain—individual potential, and
- Uncover how organizations can integrate individual and team-level insights to drive stronger organizational performance and results
This interactive panel discussion will include opportunities for participants to contribute their questions in the chat or verbally.
This event is hosted by the ATD New York City chapter.
