CCCE Virtual Event: Talent Development Trends

Talent Development Trends

As organizations and their workforces focus on growth and forward progress this year, their learning and talent development functions are at the center of this important work.   

These teams are making important connections between investments in employee learning, the content, and how learning is delivered to employees, regardless of location. They are investigating the skills and capabilities that are critical for managers to lead effectively today and tomorrow, and looking at new technologies that will propel their talent development functions into the future.
