Both bring a research-based, informed and experienced voice to this debate but propose different solutions for how to optimize performance management.

Join these two industry leaders debate and discuss how, and if, companies should change their approach to managing performance.

Do the best individual contributors …
Become the best managers?

 Commonly, organizations promote those with technical expertise to managerial roles, but these first-time people leaders will not receive leadership development until a decade into their careers.

Recent HCI survey research with HR and L&D professionals found that the sink-or-swim mindset towards new managers is pervasive: 96% agree that managers are vital to driving business success, but only 48% agree they adequately invest in frontline manager development.

It is an important part of HR and L&D practitioners’ job to support the relationship between managers and their teams early on by formalizing the development of first-time, front-line leaders.

In this practical research webcast, presented by Paradigm Learning’s  Amy Bybee (LinkedIn profile), and HCI’s Director of Research, Dr. Jenna Filipkowski (LinkedIn profile) , you will learn:

  • The areas where first-time managers are struggling the most, including soft skills and business acumen
  • How first-time people leaders are  identified and developed
  • The six strategies to formalize the development of your first-time managers
