Hello, Senior Leaders & Executives Community members! I’m pleased to introduce myself as your new Community Manager. I am excited for the opportunity to collaborate with you, and bring you some of the industry’s leading research and resources for C-suite learning leaders. If you are new to this group, learn how you can contribute here.

Will you be at ATD 2015 in Orlando next week? If so, I would like to meet you! I’ll be at the Communities of Practice Booth in ATD Central (located in the Expo Hall) during the following days and times:

  • Monday, 11:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m.
  • Wednesday, 10-11 a.m.

Please come say hello! The booth will be stocked with brochures and fliers describing ATD’s various Communities of Practice, including more details on the Senior Leaders & Executives Community.
ATD 2015 has a dedicated education track on leadership development. You can search for topics and speakers that interest you, and build your own daily schedule.

Below are some suggested concurrent sessions:

This year’s Senior Leaders & Executives Community Theater session will present lessons from leaders in the profession. The one-hour TEDx-style session on Tuesday, May 19, from 3-4 p.m. in W300, features leadership legends Jack Zenger, Patricia McLagan, Elaine Biech, and Jack Phillips. This brand-new Community Theater format includes audience Q&A at the conclusion of the session. Don’t miss it!

I look forward to learning with you at ATD 2015, and beyond. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or ideas.

Cheers,

Ann
