Ensure leadership development translates into day-to-day behavior
Partner with Talent & HRBPs to integrate learning into performance, talent, and succession processes
Create mechanisms for reinforcement (manager enablement, nudges, peer learning)

You’ll have real influence on how the organization grows and leads
