Impact on the Organization

Effective leaders rely on specific task and relationship competencies to  motivate, direct, and support their employees as they move towards common  goals. These competencies are often developed through trial and error at the  “school of hard knocks.” Organizations can build better leadership by  systematically showing leaders how to improve in the areas that make the greatest  difference. Leadership Essentials will  help leaders identify the specific skills they need to make their organization  more successful, and give them the tools they need to develop those competencies.
