People spend the bulk of their careers acquiring various “leadership skills”. Unfortunately, acquiring those “skills” alone will usually not help them become a better leader. This ‘checking the boxes’ approach to leadership improvement only provides temporary success, if any, as people become complacent once they’ve achieved them, instead of working to optimize them. For ongoing, long-term improvement, leaders need a continuously improving leadership process to help them achieve their career goals. This focus on short-term knowledge versus long-term process-driven improvement contributes to organizations realizing less than 10% in concrete results from of their annual outlay for corporate training and development. In this session, attendees will learn how applying the leadership development process taught in the leading academic organizational leadership programs will help them become a better leader thus realizing continuous improvement in their daily leadership practice.
