**The Impact of Leadership Development Programs: an ICF International Sponsored Webinar

June 27, 2011 at 11:30amEST**

Join ICF International for a unique glimpse into the world of Leadership Development. Very few people would disagree that effective leadership is one of the most important elements in achieving organizational success. While it is common place for organizations to invest in leadership development programs, it is far less common to have insights into how they measure the effectiveness and value of these programs. The recently published report: The Impact of Leadership Development Programs, a research partnership between the American Society for Training & Development (ASTD) and ICF International, is the subject for these meetings.

At this event, Ethan Sanders, a fellow at ICF International and a primary author of the report, will discuss the following topics:

• What are the best examples of organizations that are able to measure the impact of leadership development programs?

• What are the specific techniques and the required context that these organizations require to link leadership development content to organizational metrics?

• Can these best practices be transplanted into other organizations, thereby allowing them to assess and improve the outcomes of their leadership development programs?

Registration is free of charge and open to ASTD members and non-members.
