When it comes to corporate leadership, the standard for performance has to be greatness simply because of the leverage inherent in the leadership role. If the leaders are mediocre, how can the organization ever be great?
Corporate leaders need to be great in specific ways that enable everyone else in the organization to be great. Achieving this type of greatness requires you to think and act at the systems level, the essence of being a strategic asset to the firm. Making this shift to the systems level is the key to attaining the vision and skills needed to identify, align, and link the essential parts of your organization to work interdependently as a high-performing whole instead of an under-performing heap – as a star team instead of a team of stars. By actively participating in this course, you will make this shift and unlock your greatness as a corporate leader.
