XPX DC Metro -Conscious, Capable, and Ready to Contribute: How Employee Development Can Become the Highest Form of Social Contribution

It is often said that people are a company’s most valuable resource……but, in practice, this does not always seem to be reality……. What if companies made developing their people's capabilities core to their mission? And what if equipping people with the intellectual, emotional, and social capabilities they need to thrive and contribute in the world was a recognized and incentivized form of social contribution? Leadership experts Ed Offterdinger and Catherine Allen, co-founders of AO People Partners, know from years of professional experience that higher profits, happy, engaged, and productive employees, better relationships away from work, and a better world are a result when companies put development at the center of their strategy.

Please join us as Ed and Catherine share with us how to transform a company’s culture andyour workforce into a happy and highly productive group ready to make huge contributions to your organization, community, and the world.
