Topic: When Leadership Capability Is Missed — And What Can Change That
Leadership capability is often missed when it does not fit familiar assumptions about what creates exceptional leadership.
These assumptions unintentionally narrow the pool of talent within organizations that is recognized as ready for advancement.
This session invites leaders to adopt a broader lens to recognize, develop, and benefit from advancing hidden leadership talent.
