How can leaders best encourage each colleague’s strengths and talents to make contributions that promote performance beyond expectations within their organizations? The most effective leaders
- are alert to individual needs and diversity of strengths and talents.
- provide appropriate challenges and learning experiences unique to each individual.
- use delegation to help develop followers.
Learn practical strategies for demonstrating these key leadership behaviors during this presentation. Faculty are encouraged to bring their classes to this event.
Light refreshments will be served following the discussion.
