There are so many ways to learn and connect with fellow working professionals in the government at ASTD 2013 in Dallas. Whether you work at the local, state, or federal level, we have multiple opportunities for you to share best practices about operating successfully in the public sector.

In addition to all the informal connections and networking sure to be made at the Government Pavilion, we have a broad array of relevant and timely sessions on cross-agency collaboration, ethics, digital government, and leadership training in a challenging budget environment, among others.

One of our featured sessions is “3 Strategies for Effective Government Leadership Programs” offered on Monday, May 20th from 12:30 p.m. to 1:45 p.m., hosted by  Larry Felix, director of the Bureau of Engraving and Printing,  and by Sardek Love, president and founder of Infinity Consulting and Training Solutions, Inc.

Join co-presenters Sardek P. Love and Larry R. Felix for a discussion on the key components of an effective leadership development model you can adopt to create exceptional leaders in your agency. This session will provide an overview of ASTD’s “Creating Leadership Development Programs” certificate course. Tailored to meet the needs of government agencies, Sardek and Felix will share strategies that allow you to align your leadership development process with agency priorities, determine the skills gaps in your leadership ranks, and provide a methodology for addressing those skills gaps. You will receive various tips, tools, and strategies in a hands-on, interactive session that will enable you to immediately begin applying concepts presented back on the job.
