Leadership development is not just for supervisors.
Many professionals are content with their technical role, proclaiming to never want to be a supervisor. To them, developing leadership skills is not necessary to their position.
They’re proudly displaying their areas of expertise through an e-library filled with blogs, books and articles. And yet, few of those pieces, if any, are on leadership.
Far too often, this crucial skill is overlooked. Dodie Gomer has found that to build talent – to really, authentically build talent -- leadership capability must be part of the equation.
Gomer has more than 25 years of corporate HR leadership experience with Caterpillar, where she served as the HR Director for multiple division and managed Succession Planning for both engineering and manufacturing. Dodie’s leadership legacy lives on in the talent pipeline strategy she created for the global EHS professionals, which includes a global Succession Planning process and a leadership development program.
Today, Dodie applies that experience as a keynote speaker and talent pipeline consultant. Recently she developed an accountable leadership strategy for a Big Ten fraternity, complete with leadership workshops. She has been recognized for setting a clear vision, for motivating others and for utilizing innovative and practical approaches.
Dodie's audience spans all fields. Her scope reaches individuals at all stages in their careers. It’s an approach that inspires individuals and teams to tap into their unique talent and go beyond their technical expertise to develop as leaders, even if they never plan to be a supervisor.
A talent builder believes far beyond the technical potential of all professionals. Dodie Gomer is your talent builder.
