A Modern View of Leadership. Thats almost as good as Bill George telling us to be authentic after publishing a book called Authentic Leadership. Much of it consists of the usual motherhood statements about trust and purpose characteristic of a very old-fashioned concept of leadership. So what is a more modern view of leadership?

A Lost Generation of Leadership? The interview begins with: Q: You have said that the younger generation, people under 45 or so, should be taking over in business because they are showing stronger leadership and more focus on their "true north" than their seniors. link] "baby-boom-millennial-leadership"?

Generations, Leadership, and Default Modes. Erics last post about the Generation X approach to leadership has me thinking. It makes sense to me that generations will view the idea of "leadership" differently, and the point Eric raised--is it okay for a leader to be unsure or admit he or she is wrong--is a good one. Leadership.

Before I purchased an association management company (AMC) , I owned and ran a pizzeria. The last year has seen new emphasis placed on the need to include more BIPOC (black, indigenous, and people of color) individuals in positions of leadership in all levels of society. Representation is not the anchovy of your association.

Fear and Loathing in Association Leadership. They blog, have Facebook pages or Twitter accounts, or engage with the public using YouTube. Their members gather, connect and learn through association-sponsored social networks. But how many association CEOs get personally engaged in these activities? About This Blog.

Research demonstrates that millennials think about and define diversity in significantly different ways than members of previous generations. Millennials are more focused on "cognitive diversity, or diversity of thoughts, ideas, and philosophies." First, it's good to see Joe Gerstandt getting some love in the association community.
