Confronted by waves of new and increasingly complex leadership demands, your executives, and in particular, your function leaders, must have the ability to lead through unprecedented times. Called the “linchpin” of organizations, function leaders have arguably the greatest impact on your business performance. A future of disruptions and uncertainty places a premium on organizational capabilities to rapidly learn, pivot, and execute with agility. Function leaders are the “critical middle” who exercise these capabilities, serving as executors and reshapers of strategy in real time, vital talent developers, change leaders, internal influencers, and results drivers. As your function leaders succeed, so too does your organization. Their development represents your best investment. **What You Will Learn** - Why the value and influence of function leaders has never been greater - The five roles most critical to function leader success - The real value and impact of function leader development - More about an innovative development journey that enables busy function leaders to accelerate their business impact, improve leadership effectiveness, and enhance resilience and well-being as they navigate waves of disruption **Presenters** ![JimLaughlin-hub](https://info.mdaleadership.com/hs-fs/hubfs/JimLaughlin-hub.jpg?width=184&height=210&name=JimLaughlin-hub.jpg "JimLaughlin-hub") **Jim Laughlin, M.F.A.,** Senior *Vice President, Leadership Development*, MDA Leadership ![Paige-Pearson-HubSpot](https://info.mdaleadership.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Paige-Pearson-HubSpot.jpg?width=184&name=Paige-Pearson-HubSpot.jpg "Paige-Pearson-HubSpot") Paige Pearson Meyer, *Vice President of Corporate Communications*, Midco ![Trevor-Funk-HubSpot](https://info.mdaleadership.com/hubfs/Trevor-Funk-HubSpot.jpg "Trevor-Funk-HubSpot") ## Trevor Funk, *Director – Temperature Controlled LTL Solutions*, C.H.
