Blended Learning Prepares Leaders Around the World
| CLIENT: | Xerox Holdings Corporation |
| LOCATION: | Headquartered in Norwalk, Connecticut |
| SIZE: | 27,000 employees |
Client Profile & Challenge
Start with the imperative to develop next-generation leaders, add the pressure to do it efficiently, and then kick it up a notch by mixing employees from 16 countries into the same experience. Our partnership with Xerox Corporation has taken this complex challenge and turned it into a recipe for success.
The Xerox Emerging Leaders Program (ELP) is a 5-month program that blends face-to-face sessions, virtual learning platforms, online assessments, personal executive coaching, and internal mentoring. Originally developed for Xerox’s North American operations, ELP got its start when Xerox challenged us to create a program that would prepare a pool of up-and-coming employees for leadership roles. Xerox also sought to develop more people, more efficiently by using leading-edge learning technology.
Objectives:
- Identify the skill set and experiences needed for effective leadership in the digital economy;
- Build a pool of leaders who are equipped to manage complex problems;
- Prepare employees for participating in cross-functional, cross-cultural, and geographically dispersed teams; and
- Overcome time zone differences and language barriers to prepare a new generation of leaders.
Solution & Results
- ELP projects are helping reduce costs, improve quality, and deliver better service;
- Participants gain an appreciation for the complexity and diversity of the organization; and
- Improved communication and teamwork skills translate to meaningful leader development.
