How learning leaders earn executive trust, influence decisions, and drive business
value.
For learning leaders, executive influence is earned by understanding the business,
connecting workforce capability to strategic priorities, and bringing insights that help
executives make better decisions.
In this candid, interactive panel, experienced learning executives will share what
they’ve learned from conversations in the C-suite — including the meetings that
opened doors, the pitches that went nowhere, and the mistakes they’d rather not
repeat.
Together, we’ll explore how to prepare for a CEO conversation, speak the language
of business, navigate difficult questions, and move from advocating for learning to
advising on enterprise performance.
Bring your toughest questions and your best (or worst) executive meeting stories.
We’ll compare experiences, challenge conventional wisdom, and have some fun
along the way.
One rule: No hiding behind L&D jargon. This is about the business.
During this session, you will learn:
- Move away from advocating for learning to advising on enterprise performance
- Understand what your executive needs to make better decisions
- Speak the language of the C-suite
- Make your CEO your biggest supporter
