Developing yourself (Personal Proficiency) and your Organization (Professional Mastery)

Leading at the Edge

Leading at the edge means playing to win as an individual, as a team and as an organization. Surprisingly, the vast majority of leaders are in fact “playing not to lose,” which means they are not really leading at all. Organizations that develop a transformational leadership culture and understand the impact of organizational behavior excel because they become magnets for the enormous talent produced during the economic downturn. These are the organizations that continue to provide its greatest assets – the people – with opportunities to learn, grow and build the leadership competencies that win.

These organizations become high-performing organizations by attracting and keeping their most talented people fully engaged, and by creating a self reinforcing cycle whereby leadership development is at the heart of successfully running the organization. Regardless of their professional and organizational roles, all top leaders must understand how leadership, culture, organizational behavior, teams and operational effectiveness are closely intertwined to achieve outstanding results.

Drawing on the latest studies of high-performance leadership and years in the executive education classrooms whereby the world of business professionals across a multi-disciplined spectrum of industry delivered outstanding lessons to our faculty, we will translate this cutting-edge knowledge to the real world of leading teams and organizations, especially in times of change, transformation and uncertainty. You will learn what the leaders in top companies, who are known for their outstanding leadership cultures, do so successfully to continue leading at the edge.
