What does great leadership development actually look like, and how can L&D prove it's making a difference?

In this episode of L&D Disrupt, Pauline is joined by Cathal Quinlan, host of the Better at Work podcast and an experienced transformation leader, to explore how organisations can develop better leaders, improve team performance and connect learning to real business outcomes.

Drawing on his experience at Goldman Sachs and Westpac, Cathal shares why leadership training needs to go beyond the classroom, how to measure its impact and what leaders can do to help their teams thrive.

In this episode, we cover:

The 5 Cs of great leadership: clarity, context, clearing the way, care and celebration.
How to measure leadership development through employee engagement, sick leave, customer satisfaction and operational performance.
Why leadership behaviours matter just as much as hitting targets.
The difference between development goals and performance goals.
How to turn business strategy into meaningful team goals using the FIT framework: Fix, Improve, Transform.
How to give feedback that keeps people open to learning, rather than putting them on the defensive.
How to approach difficult performance conversations with clarity, empathy and accountability.
Why leadership development needs to translate into real team changes, not just completed training.

If you're an L&D professional looking to build more effective leadership programmes, demonstrate business impact or help managers turn learning into better performance, this episode is for you.

🎧 Listen, learn and disrupt the way you think about leadership development.
