The latest trends and developments in executive coaching will be the topic on Oct. 17-18, when the Society for Industrial and Organizational Psychology’s will host its fourth annual Leading Edge Consortium at the Westin Hotel in Cincinnati. Entitled “Executive Coaching for Effective Performance: Leading Edge Practice and Research,” the conference will examine three areas of executive coaching that attendees will find useful in their work: the psychology of coaching, its impact and some examples of best practices in coaching.
Executive coaches, businesses, and academics alike will have the opportunity to converse with leaders in the field about executive coaching while gaining knowledge and perspectives from both sides of the relationship. The consortium starts with a welcome reception at 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, October 16. The program begins at 8 a.m. on Friday, October 17, and concludes at 2 p.m. on Saturday, October 18. More information on the Leading Edge Consortium is available at the SIOP Web site at www.siop.org/lec. Registration cost is $425 on or before August 29 and $495 thereafter. Consortium includes breaks, lunch on Friday and Saturday and receptions on Thursday and Friday evenings.
