Sommario/riassunto

The Fourth Industrial Revolution signals a sea change in the way we lead our organisations. Moving away from relational leadership and horizontal, organisationally-led development, it is imperative that business leaders are able to adapt to more networked organisations and shift away from dated assumptions of positional power.

It will teach you how to: Approach leadership development as a system rather than a programme Develop an organisational ecosystem to support
