The Talent Development Executive Confidence Index (TDXCI), formerly the Learning Executive Confidence Index (LXCI), is a quarterly assessment of talent development executives’ short-term expectations for the health of the talent development function in organizations.

The TDXCI is a composite score that takes into account four key indicators for how talent development executives believe the talent development function will change during the next six months:

· Ability to Meet Talent Development Needs

· Impact on Corporate Performance

· Perception of the Value of the Talent Development Function

· Availability of Resources.

The TDXCI is modeled after The Conference Board Measure of CEO Confidence, which rates CEOs’ expectations for the economy on a quarterly basis.

The Q2 2018 TDXCI score stands at 61.0, which is 3.8 points below last quarter’s score of 64.8.
