National Eagle Leadership Institute

We dedicate ourselves to helping organizations manage the enormous task of recruiting, retaining, and recognizing culturally diverse talent. HR and diversity officers trust NELI as an extension of their leadership-development efforts because our programs achieve their promise and serve two major markets: African-American and Latino professionals.

An overarching theme emerging from NELI's research is that the greatest single asset of any organization is its human capital — the people with a vested interest in the business, to whom the business must in turn show a similar commitment in order to remain competitive.

While retooling your company's leaders, NELI's Executive Leadership Exchange™ underscores your commitment to talent development and retention. As workforce demographics continue to shift, it will be talent — the ability to recruit and retain it — that distinguishes the truly great companies.

Without question, tending to talent development can be demanding of time and resources, but its payoffs are indisputable. Research suggests that replacing a valued employee can cost as much as 300 percent of annual salary, not including lost productivity, lost business, impact on customer satisfaction, decrease in morale, and loss of intellectual capital. The expense often doubles when the lost employee is African-American or Latino.

A small investment in your key employees can go a long way toward retaining intellectual capital. If you seek a different approach to leadership development, or if you'd like to supplement your current practices, register 10 colleagues for the upcoming Executive Leadership Exchange™.

The next Executive Leadership Exchange is November 13 - 14, at the Westin Michigan Avenue Hotel in Chicago, Illinois. The registration deadline is October 1, 2008. Check back soon for online registration materials or contact N. Michelle Paige at nmpaige@neli.net or 913.317.2888, if we can assist you sooner.
