Prepared for Bloomingdale’s · August 2026
A leadership development framework
The right support,
at the right moment.
A practical way to reinforce Bloomingdale’s five People Leader behaviors while matching the level of investment to the development need.
The decision framework
Not every development need should become a six-month coaching engagement.
The goal is a connected system: shared language for everyone, practice for cohorts, focused support when an individual needs it, and deeper coaching for the highest-stakes roles.
02Practice together
Group coaching
Manager cohorts and intact teams
Create space to apply the behaviors to real situations, learn from peers, and build accountability.
Use whenThe challenge is application, not awareness.
03Scaled development
GROW coaching
Emerging and mid-level leaders
A structured 12-session coaching experience that builds sustained leadership capability at scale.
Use whenA leader needs individual development beyond a workshop or cohort experience.
04Executive support
Executive coaching
Senior leaders
A tailored engagement with coach matching, clear development priorities, and stakeholder alignment.
Use whenThe role carries meaningful organizational complexity and visibility.
05Bespoke partnership
Bespoke executive coaching
Highest-impact executives
A deeply customized engagement that can incorporate assessment, broader stakeholder input, and expanded support.
Use whenThe mandate, stakes, and scope call for the highest-touch offering.
A potential starting architecture
Build around the behaviors.
Layer support by need.
This is not a final program design. It is a starting point for thinking about how the pieces can work together after Talent Day.

Design principles
One behavior system
Every format reinforces the same five People Leader behaviors rather than creating a collection of disconnected programs.
Flexible entry points
Leaders get the level of support the moment calls for, from shared practice through high-touch executive coaching.
Measured as one portfolio
Participation, satisfaction, competency growth, and themes can roll into one aggregate view without compromising confidentiality.
