Five Things Leaders Need to Succeed Now
The world, and the world of work is changing – faster than ever. There are new external forces, new expectations from customers and employees, more uncertainty, changing rules, more change and leaders are left trying to figure all of it out, while leading day to day.
Leading has never been easy, but it has never been more complex than it is now. We can wish for the “good old days” or we can accept and embrace the present – and adjust our leadership approaches to match a new world. But what does this new world require of us as leaders, and for the leaders in our organizations?
Join us for an interactive, thought provoking, and practical session where Kevin Eikenberry highlights the key needs for leaders in this new world – and how organizations can help them get there. This will be a timely, practical, and inspirational look into the future of the leader’s role – and how you can prepare for it.
The future of work contains big opportunities and the choices and preparation you take now will have impact far into the future.
You can do nothing and get reducing returns from what you already do.
