Inside Coaching: Building a Learning Organization Across a Multi-Brand Enterprise

​Inside Coaching is a small, invitation-only fireside series for senior HR and Talent leaders who own executive coaching and leadership development inside large, complex organizations. Each session is an off-the-record conversation, no slides, no recording, with a peer doing this work inside an enterprise.

​For this session, CoachSource Founder Brian Underhill sits down with Ian Kristic, Ph.D., of VF Corporation, for a candid conversation about building a learning organization across a global portfolio of iconic brands including The North Face, Vans, Timberland, JanSport and Smartwool.

​At VF, leaders are being asked to coach others and remain coachable themselves: staying curious, continuing to learn, and building the agility needed to lead through constant change.

​What we'll discuss

• ​Building a true learning organization where coaching, curiosity and continuous development are expectations of leadership

• ​Developing leaders across a multi-brand enterprise and preparing them to move successfully across brands, regions and functions

• ​Using coaching and leadership development to build agility through change and support the company's longer-term transformation
