Developing Leaders Across International Borders

Our speaker will be Raymond McConnell, co-founder of JR Global Training/Sandler Training Singapore and Hong Kong, as well as the founder of JRM Global Training in
North America.

In this briefing, we will be taking a deep dive into one of the greatest opportunities and challenges for organizations in the 21st Century: Global Leadership Development.

We will discuss:

How can leaders span boundaries and foster collaboration across different groups?
How effective are your leaders at crossing borders, and how high of a priority is it in your organization?
What are the implications for cross-border leadership development, and why is it needed?
What is the most critical cross-border leadership skill for the future?
What are the specific challenges which require effective cross-border leadership?
What are the five obstacles most commonly faced by organizations’ cross-border leaders?
What specific skills are needed to be successful as a cross-border leader?

Raymond McConnell answers these questions and more during this briefing and shares his extensive global research from both his United States and international experience.

Research from conversations with CEOs and other senior leaders from Fortune 500, regional companies, government organizations and academic institutions in over 40 countries including Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, Germany, India, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, Netherlands, Norway, Pakistan, Philippines, Qatar, Russia, Singapore, South Africa, UK, USA, Vietnam and more will be shared during the session.

As always, lunch will be served and attendees will earn 2 hours of PHR/CPHR/SPHR certification credit.

This event is by invitation only and there is no cost to our invited guests. As a reminder, attendees will earn two hours of PHR/SPHR/GPHR certification credit through the HRCI.
