Shonna Waters, LEC cochair, has this to say about the event:

The SIOP Leading Edge Consortium is a must-attend event for anyone serious about leadership development in today’s dynamic business landscape. It offers a unique blend of cutting-edge research, real-world case studies, and interactive learning experiences. In just 2 days, you’ll walk away with practical tools and fresh perspectives that can transform your approach to leadership in this shifting world. The LEC provides the knowledge and connections you need to stay ahead in the evolving field of leadership development.

LEC Cochair José David explained:

Since the end of last year, the LEC Committee has been hard at work assembling the program for this year’s event. We are excited to bring together an event that captures the current state of leadership and leadership development, the evolving context, often complex, in which leaders need to operate in, and the latest advances in the use of technology for the purposes of leadership development. 

I am also excited about the very interdisciplinary group of speakers that we are bringing together. The LEC is bringing speakers from academia, the public and private sectors, organizations of diverse sizes, and practitioners and experts in the fields of psychology, human resources, DEI, learning, law, and coaching. 

The program itself is approved for 9.75 units of continuing education credit*. Registration for this event is still open, so make your plans today to attend.
