Role models of excellence
Over many years we have seen that a great paradox exists for many senior executives: on the one hand they are referred to as the 'leadership' of the organisation - yet, at the same time, they are often seen to be the most removed people in the organisation when it comes to people and performance. Suffering from 'The Distorted View From The Top' and 'Rambos In Pinstripes' syndromes, far too many executives forget that leadership is a verb, not a noun. Humility and a genuine interest in the people of the organisation becomes increasingly less important. Yet, there is a vast difference between 'running a business' and 'developing willing followership'.
At Leadership In Action we have developed a range of programmes - each entirely customisable - to help work with this paradox. The hallmark of our work - action-learning - is consistent, ensuring that any programme of learning is entirely focused on the executive's individual and organisational reality and that learning occurs in 'real-time, real-world'.
