Programs in Leadership & Talent Development
WHAT ARE THE PROGRAMS IN LEADERSHIP & TALENT DEVELOPMENT ALL ABOUT?
The change caused by innovation and technology is far-reaching. According to the World Economic Forum, World Bank and McKinsey, employees from every sector need to gain new skills, and improve existing ones. As it becomes a priority for global companies, HR directors and transformational leaders are emerging as key forces of change. Once mainly responsible for administrative tasks, HR professionals in particular are experiencing a new lease of life as impactful strategic decision-makers.
The Leadership & Talent Development programs at IE University train top-tier professionals to respond to this context. By facing the challenges of today’s fast-paced and competitive landscape with human-centered strategies and emotionally resonant leadership styles, this new generation of leaders can help others to reach their full potential.
If you’d like to develop agile leadership practices that impact people positively, then this is the area for you.

LEADERSHIP & TALENT DEVELOPMENT TRENDS
Diversity
Across all industries, there is a trend towards ensuring more diversity and inclusion in the workplace. But for graduates of these programs, it is of particular importance. For every top company like Apple or Amazon that cite diversity as a core value, it’s up to the HR professionals and inspirational leaders to ensure that they are upheld.
Employee experience
How happy an individual is at work has a direct impact on their output and influences the company’s overall performance. As more studies are done, it’s becoming clear how much of an effect this has, with companies placing more of an emphasis on building a positive employee experience.
Developing talent
The HR professional’s role has shifted, becoming more closely related to a company’s overall performance. Today, HR professionals have more significant roles at a strategic level in order to drive lasting results. But unleashing talent in others isn’t reserved only for HR, as top managers are recognizing the importance of developing in this area. There is a strong trend towards cultivating positive workplace cultures for strategic gain.
