The most effective leadership development happens when high tech tools are fused with high touch human connection—where data, digital platforms, and artificial intelligence (AI) meet coaching, executive involvement, and real human experience, according to findings from the 10th Annual Leadership Development Survey conducted in partnership between Training magazine and Wilson Learning Worldwide Inc.   

Leadership development is entering a new era. In this timely webinar, Lone Rock Leadership will unpack the findings from the 2026 Leadership Reality Report and explore the three defining realities reshaping organizations today: volatility, versatility, and ambiguity. Drawing on insights from more than 180 organizations and 28,000 leaders, this session will reveal why traditional leadership approaches are no longer enough and what today’s leaders must do differently to stay effective in a rapidly changing environment.

Anyone can raise the bar. But it takes a great leader to raise people too. People don’t burn out from high expectations. They burn out from unclear direction, shifting priorities, and inconsistent leadership standards.

Join us for a special book launch event celebrating Building a Culture of Evaluation: The New Kirkpatrick Model for Performance and Innovation—and the beginning of a new era in how organizations measure success.

In a world full of tools, tips, and technology, it’s easy to believe engagement comes from what we use. The truth is, tools can absolutely enhance the experience… but they don’t create it on their own. That part is up to us.  

Could your webinars use more mojo? Do people scroll past your ads and not sign up? If they do show up, do they tune out… leave your webinars before you get to your offer… not book as many calls as you’d like… and not buy your coaching? Oh, behave!

Most AI training programs focus on awareness, prompting, and productivity hacks. But organizations are quickly discovering that knowing how AI works doesn’t automatically improve performance, decision-making, or business outcomes.  

For years, the learning and development field has struggled to measure the true effectiveness of programs beyond basic knowledge and skill acquisition. While reaction and learning metrics have been commonplace for almost a century, far fewer organizations have successfully measured behavior change, impact, and especially ROI. Yet the most serious learning programs, those that are strategic, costly, and highly visible, demand this level of accountability.  

Co-facilitating a session is like a dance. Both partners need to coordinate and pay attention to what the other is doing. Becky and Kim have advice on how you can be the best Batman to your partner’s Robin (or vice versa).  

Join Paul Nolan, Editor of Sales+Marketing Management, C. Lee Smith, Founder and CEO of SalesFuel, and Kathy Crosett, SVP of Research at SalesFuel, for a moderated discussion on what the latest data reveals about a problem that hasn’t gotten easier to solve:

What creates the "chemistry" in high-performing teams? This session translates cutting-edge neuroscience into practical strategies for talent professionals who want to build genuinely collaborative teams. More of today's work is powered by teams, yet 86 percent of employees cite "lack of effective teamwork and collaboration" as the source of workplace failures.  

What separates a "good" course from an industry-recognized, award-winning learning experience? It is rarely just about the budget; it is about the thousands of micro-decisions made during the strategy, design, and development phases. In this exclusive "behind-the-scenes" session, we are pulling back the curtain on our production process to walk you through the entire lifecycle of a successful project.   

The problem isn't the technology. It's the environment the technology lands in. If your organization struggles to make great decisions without AI, AI will simply accelerate those failures — faster, at scale, and with less warning.  

In today’s fast-paced, on-the-go world, learning needs to be as flexible as your learners. Join this webinar to discover how to design engaging, intuitive, and high-impact mobile learning experiences using Adobe Captivate.

Most people want to learn, yet it is often harder than it should be — not because of motivation, but because of the obstacles learners routinely face. Limited time, uncertainty about where to begin, hesitation to ask questions, and the frustration of not immediately "getting it" create friction that traditional learning models rarely address. Over time, this struggle has simply been accepted as part of the process.  

As the movement to a skills-based organization accelerates, a question worth pondering is, "What are the implications for business-centric learning that focuses directly on business outcomes?" Are the two approaches compatible? Many organizations believe they are strategic because they address skills that are related to business outcomes, but does that make them strategic and is that the best way to achieve business outcomes?

Companies implement sales training to improve sales performance . But most programs still struggle to show measurable impact.

While there are plenty of reasons people listen to podcasts, learning new things is clearly one of them.  And chances are over 60% of the people in your organization have listened to one in the last month. That makes podcasts a potentially powerful learning and communication tool for your organization.    

Most businesses chase new leads while leaving tens if not hundreds of thousands of dollars on the table with their existing clients. This session reveals how to unlock six figures in just 90 days by mastering the art of upselling—without feeling pushy or salesy.  

Where the demand for coaching and consulting services has grown dramatically in recent years, a key challenge remains: demonstrating the value of these services in terms that executives can clearly understand. For most coaches and consultants, this means showing measurable impact and ROI.  

AI-generated images often reflect bias and exaggerate stereotypes related to race, gender, age, and disability. AI models are trained on stock images that often don't show equitable representation. In addition, the way AI image tools predict likely images can amplify biases. However, with the right tools and prompts, AI-generated images can be more inclusive than the traditional stock images we often use in training.

Does reading an e-learning blog result in more questions than answers? Does reviewing descriptions of e-learning conference sessions make you wonder what language they are written in? Do acronyms such as SCORM, LMS, and xAPI make you dizzy? If so, then this session is for you. It can be challenging to understand e-learning information without a baseline of knowledge.  

Even well-designed training can fail when learners choose not to apply parts of it on the job. While many learning and development (L&D) professionals focus on content quality and delivery, the real challenge often lies after training ends: whether employees actually use what they learned in real-world settings.
