Leadership Is an Ecosystem, Not an Event: Rethinking How We Develop Leaders

Episode notes

Leadership expectations are rising faster than leader preparation. That's the tension at the center of this conversation with Justin Roscoe, VP of Learning and Organizational Development at California Credit Union. Justin makes a sharp case that organizations have been treating leadership development as an event when it needs to be an ecosystem, and the results of getting that wrong show up in turnover, disengagement, and leaders who are stuck managing the shift instead of leading the business. Guest: Justin Roscoe is VP of Learning and Organizational Development at California Credit Union, where he leads training and development for approximately 530 employees.
