Leading in L&d
Description
L&D leadership isn’t a role. It’s how you show up every day.
Leadership isn’t something bestowed upon you. You build your skills as an L&D leader every day through the choices you make and the behaviors you model. In Leading in L&D, learning expert David Kelly shares 17 essential behaviors that will help you show up and succeed as a leader no matter what your role, title, or place on the organizational chart.
The book, written in an engaging, conversational style, includes:
- Insights and real-world stories based on interviews with dozens of leaders in the field
- Practical exercises to help you practice each behavior
- Preparation for the obstacles you are likely to encounter as well as advice about how to overcome them
