Today's organizations need every employee to be a leader, whether leading a team or leading themselves. Better leadership can generate improvement in customer satisfaction and help eliminate productivity drag. But still, some leaders, especially new ones, may struggle and need help. Coaching at scale can address this talent problem, reclaim company losses, and help organizations remain agile moving into the future. Recognizing what makes a coaching at scale program different from traditional coaching allows you to take advantage of these benefits and harness the full power of coaching. This course will explore how to launch a coaching at scale initiative tailored to your organization's learning and business needs. You'll learn strategies for choosing learning cohorts, how to choose internal and external coaches, and best practices for implementing your own coaching at scale program.

While most organizations and leaders understand the importance of diversity and inclusion for better business results, individuals often struggle as they get confused about what they can actually do to create a more inclusive work environment, where everyone feels they can be themselves and that they belong. Leaders often hesitate and end up doing nothing, as they worry about doing or saying something that is inappropriate or that will have unintended consequences. In this session, we will help everyone, and particularly leaders, understand the role they can play for workplace diversity and inclusion, providing practical examples of behaviors and leadership practices to foster a more inclusive employee experience.

Transitioning into senior leadership can be challenging. The approach, the attitudes, or the mindset that worked well in a mid-level management role might not be sufficient in a more senior role. A successful transition is often about discarding the old way of doing things and developing a new approach and mindset. It's about acquiring new skills, new perspectives, and leadership maturity. In this course, you'll learn the necessary attributes of leadership maturity, the qualities needed for successful functional area management, and strategies and best practices for upper-level delegation and transition into the leadership of leaders.
