Live, online. Recording sent to every registrant.

What you'll leave with

A clear-eyed look at the program you already run.

You'll stress-test the leadership program you already run, see where the AI era is making it under-deliver, and walk out with three concrete moves to make next, sized to this quarter.

01 · The pattern

Where today's leadership programs are most exposed

Across the organizations Herrmann works with, the same gaps keep showing up. You'll see the four places leadership development is under-delivering right now, and how to recognize them inside your own program.

02 · The Capability

The one capability that holds the rest together

One trainable capability does more than any other to keep leaders thinking flexibly under pressure, instead of narrowing to old patterns. The session covers what it is, why it holds the rest together, and how to build it in.

03 · The Move

Three things you can do inside the program you're already running

Concrete, sequenced moves to make without rebuilding what you have. Designed to fit the decisions on your desk this quarter.

For anyone who designs, delivers, or decides the future of leadership development.
