The Skills Conversation: Rethinking Leadership Development at Sony Sports

Session Summary

As organisations grow, so do the challenges of developing leaders across different teams, functions and locations. The question isn’t just how you build leadership skills. It’s how you create leaders who collaborate, share knowledge and help break down organisational silos.

Join us for The Skills Conversation, a fireside chat with Hannah Behan, Head of Talent Development at Sony Sports, as we explore how Sony Sports has designed a leadership programme that goes beyond traditional training. By bringing together leaders from across its global businesses, the programme is helping people build stronger networks, develop the skills to lead others and create lasting behaviour change.

In this session, we'll discuss:

Why leadership development is about more than teaching leadership skills

How creating connections across teams can be just as valuable as the learning itself

Supporting technical experts as they transition into leadership roles

The role of personality, communication and self-awareness in becoming a better leader

Practical lessons from building a leadership programme that continues to evolve

Join us to hear how Sony Sports is helping leaders learn from one another, build stronger relationships and create lasting impact across the business.
