Course Overview

Many have observed that there is a leadership crisis in organizations of all types, worldwide. Marketplace and technology challenges abound in an a VUCA environment: volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous. In such an environment, organizational leadership is more than just “management,” and more than just “leaders.” Yet while organizational leadership may never be easy, it can be made simple.
One way to look at leadership is as an agile function that sustains and enhances organizational outcomes.
A common understanding of organizational features and leadership competencies is necessary to maximize the potential for organizational success.
