Manager, Leadership Development, Learning & Organizational Effectiveness

Job Description

The Manager, Leadership Development, Learning and Organizational Effectiveness will play a pivotal role in building FormFactor’s enterprise learning, leadership development, and organizational effectiveness capabilities.

Key Responsibilities

• Partner with HR and senior leaders to shape and execute FormFactor’s enterprise learning and leadership development strategy and operating model, aligned to business priorities, growth strategy, and future capability needs.

• Establish a coherent leadership development architecture (e.g., first-time manager, experienced leader, senior leader) with clear outcomes, readiness expectations, and measurement.

• Design and deliver core learning experiences focused on leadership effectiveness, manager capability, performance leadership, decision making, and enterprise behaviors.

• Build scalable approaches to formal learning, experiential learning, and on-the-job development, translating business challenges into development opportunities.

• Ensure learning solutions are practical, applied, and measurable, not event-based or theoretical.

• Own FormFactor’s enterprise engagement and listening strategy, including survey design, pulse listening, focus groups, and other feedback mechanisms.

• Translate engagement and culture data into clear insights, risks, and prioritized actions for leaders at all levels.

• Define, operationalize, and reinforce FormFactor’s culture and leadership behaviors, ensuring alignment between stated values, leader actions, and employee experience.

• Monitor engagement, culture, and organizational health trends over time and surface enterprise-level risks and opportunities.

• Design and deploy organizational development approaches that strengthen team effectiveness, decision clarity, accountability, and execution.

• Support leaders through periods of growth, change, and transformation with structured OD tools (e.g., role clarity, operating rhythm, capability assessments).

• Serve as the business owner for learning, engagement, and OD-related tools, platforms, and vendor solutions.

• Leverage data, analytics, and AI-enabled tools to improve learning personalization, leader insight, engagement analysis, and operational efficiency.

• Ensure the responsible, ethical, and transparent use of AI that strengthens—not replaces—human judgment and leadership.

• Provide clear analysis, insights, and recommendations on leadership effectiveness, engagement, culture, and organizational capability to inform leadership decisions.

• Deliver executive-ready narratives, dashboards, and materials that connect learning, engagement, and culture to business performance and outcomes.

• Partner cross-functionally with HRBPs, Rewards, Communications, Finance, Legal, IT, and other internal and external partners to ensure alignment and execution.

• Define and own measurement frameworks for learning impact, leadership effectiveness, engagement, and culture.

• Track outcomes (not just participation), using data to evaluate effectiveness and guide iteration and investment.

• Continuously benchmark external best practices and evolve offerings as FormFactor grows in scale, complexity, and global reach.
