Innovating Leadership: Co-Creating Our Future S4-Ep13b: From Turbulence to Triumph: ILA’s Keys to Adapting Your Leadership
Guest: Cynthia Cherrey, President & CEO, International Leadership Association
The turbulence you see in the world now isn’t going away. Your leadership style must change to meet it.
Fortunately, guest Cynthia Cherrey sits at the very center of both the most effective real-world leadership practices and the latest cutting-edge leadership theories. In this episode, she shares the leadership development information that really works – and that you need – learned from global leaders successfully navigating and thriving in our increasingly complex world.
Here's what Cynthia and host Maureen Metcalf cover:
- The need for adaptive leadership, or why you can’t settle in to just one leadership mode your entire career anymore;
- The significance of global interconnectedness, which won’t (indeed, can’t) go away despite tariffs and isolationism in various countries; and
- The importance of being conscious of your own personal and professional purpose to keep you anchored through turbulence.
