Leadership Excellence - Seminar
Consistently great organizations have great leaders at the helm. In his best selling book "Good to Great", Jim Collins reveals what great leadership is all about. In the very first line he states that "good is the enemy of great". These six words sum up the difference between what it takes to create and lead a great organization and what it takes to follow behind one. In today's world, "good" has become acceptable, but the only contribution that "good" makes at best is less than excellence, and at worst, to sustain mediocrity.
This Leadership Excellence seminar identifies, reviews and reinforces the key competencies that great leaders possess. The goal is to maximize your ability to impact and successfully lead your organization in today's competitive landscape.
This Leadership Excellence seminar also provides practical reminders of what great leadership is all about and how you can transform your organization from being good to being great. This seminar identifies the key leadership competencies, the various levels of leadership today, and what is required to reinvent an organization and become great. A detailed background on the core aspects of "Good to Great" (as outlined by Jim Collins), will also be used as examples to demonstrate the essence of great leadership.
