Job Responsibility

Diagnose leadership and team effectiveness at the system level. Use evidence-based diagnostic methods — team assessments, 360 design and debrief, stakeholder interviews, organizational data — to identify root causes, not just symptoms. Translate diagnosis into actionable intervention design
Design and deliver high-impact leader and team interventions. Build and facilitate bespoke development experiences — team engagements, leadership alignment sessions, transition support, coaching engagements — that are grounded in diagnosis and connected to business outcomes. This is not templated training. It's sustained, expert-level partnership

This includes educating leaders on how team and leadership development can impact their business and organizational needs
Serve as cross-company intelligence. Use the rotational deployment model to identify patterns, share insights, and transfer best practices across business groups. Bring an enterprise-wide perspective to every engagement — "here's what we're seeing across Meta, and here's what's working."
Build trusted partnerships with HR Business Partners to deliver leader and team engagements. Collaborate on intake, scoping, and alignment while maintaining the structural independence that enables candor and trust
Connect leaders to the full People Development ecosystem. Serve as a front door to exec dev experiences, coaching resources, growth programs, and skills development — ensuring leader development isn't a one-off intervention but part of a connected system
Support organizational and work environment transformation. Partner with leaders navigating large-scale change — reorgs, strategy shifts, AI transformation — with change management expertise that goes beyond process to address the leadership capability required to lead through disruption
Stay at the cutting edge of the craft. Bring current research, emerging practices, and outside perspective on leadership effectiveness, team dynamics, and organizational health — especially as AI reshapes what leadership looks like at scale

Demonstrated mastery of leader and team diagnosis, including 360 design/debrief, team assessment, and organizational analysis
Expertise in designing and facilitating high-impact development experiences for executive leaders and leadership teams — not off-the-shelf programs, but bespoke interventions grounded in diagnostic data
Experience working within complex, technical, multicultural, and globally distributed organizations at scale
Track record of building trusted partnerships with both business leaders and HR partners, with experience consistently working under your own initiative, seeking feedback and input where appropriate
