Leadership IQ Foundations: Leading Self
Developing Leaders for the Digital Economy
Leaders in the Digital Era are faced with an ever increasingly complex environment. On one side, there is the ubiquitous nature of change that requires leaders to constantly adapt and work in the white space of ambiguity. And, on the other side, leaders are faced with higher expectations from multiple stakeholder groups who can present diverse and conflicting agendas for leaders. This paradox and pull for leaders requires that they continually find ways to learn, adapt and respond to the dynamic requirements of their role. Think "Leadership Re-Imagined" for the 21st century.
