Full Seminar Description
The mission of the Best of OD Summit is, quite simply, to help OD professionals do their jobs better. We accomplish this deceptively simple goal by listening to the thousands of OD professionals who form the Linkage OD Summit network of alumni. Each year, Linkage conducts field research with practitioners, thought leaders, and consultants to better understand the constantly changing roles, competencies, and challenges of OD, HR, and leadership development professionals. The OD Summit High Impact Learning Model reflects the findings of this research and sets the agenda for the Best of OD Summit - an accelerated development program for OD professionals that features an unmatched faculty, best practice case studies, and a rich networking forum of highly accomplished and motivated practitioners. Fee per person: $1695Key Learnings
Provide the best-in-class tools, case studies, techniques, and skills to meet the needs of today's changing and increasingly demanding organizational environments.
