Frontline Leader
Frontline Leaders Manage 80% of the Workforce
So make no mistake: The quality of frontline leadership can make or break your company.
Unfortunately, most frontline leaders are unprepared for the job. Leadership is tough, and few people have a natural skill for getting work done through others.
The good news? DDI can help. We've worked with the world's top companies to transform their managers, and we have millions of better leaders to show for it. We're ready to work by your side to do the same for your company.

Get Data with an Immersive Experience
Do your managers really know how well they're doing as leaders? With DDI's immersive Manager Ready experience, managers dive into a day on the job of a frontline manager. The realistic simulation puts them through the common challenges they may face on the job. For example, they may have to prioritize work, coach others, and drive for results.
Then comes the big payoff: Deep insight into each leader's strengths and weaknesses. You can use the data to kick off a personalized development journey, to identify gaps for group development, or for selection. The choice is yours.

Build a Learning Journey for Your Frontline Leaders
Create a learning journey to maximize the time and effectiveness of your frontline leaders. Learning journeys offer the right blend of personalized learning with group connection. For example, leaders can take assessments, pursue online learning, and coaching to boost their knowledge and insight. But they cement learning when they come together in virtual or in-person classroom session.
DDI offers proven learning journeys you can implement right away. Or we can work with you to create a completely custom learning journey.
