Next Level Leadership
Navigating the Dramatic Changes Coming in the 2020s
In today’s chaotic times, strong leadership is needed more than ever – at all levels of companies, organizations, and our government.
But the events of the past few years have exposed some of the flaws of past leadership models. From over a decade of research – including how technology and AI are affecting us and our workplaces – we’ve uncovered the data that supports the new relational style of leadership that is necessary to lead in a mid-market company in the 2020s.
The pandemic of 2020 was not a black swan event that wreaked havoc on the United States.
It was simply a spark that ignited conflict that has been building over the past 13 years. Some are calling this year the start of our “great awakening,” where societal views, social systems, governmental systems and business systems are all being challenged and re-engineered.
That includes leadership.
While leadership is a tired discussion amongst many executive teams, these events have exposed some of the flaws of past leadership models which recognized and rewarded:
- workaholism
- dysfunctional interpersonal relationships
- imbalanced notions of work-life balance
- several other occupational hazards that threaten leaders and their teams
