Leadership for Turbulent Times
We are currently living In a volatile, uncertain, complex, and adaptive world. The need for progress and change on difficult systemic issues is all around us: digitalization, political uncertainty, race and inclusion, financial upheaval, and the list goes on. In this context, people are increasingly called on to lead their teams and communities through significant operational and cultural reforms. However, the attributes that served our management well in the past - technical expertise, respect for functional and industry boundaries, and deference to hierarchy - are no longer sufficient. To survive and thrive in this environment, more adaptive approaches are needed.
In this session, we will draw on the Adaptive Leadership Framework – developed at Harvard’s Kennedy School – to gain insights into how to navigate these turbulent times. Join us to deepen your leadership practice for this crucial moment in history.
