BONUS SESSION: [LQ] Leadership Intelligence: A More Modern and Human Approach to Leadership

Traditional leadership development programs and approaches have historically failed, resulting in minimal and siloed development, if they have yielded results at all. The focus, traditionally, has been on leadership as a competency, as a set of skills you wield. [LQ] Leadership Intelligence presents a modern and human-focused approach to leadership development, focusing on the leader as a whole person. [LQ] Leadership Intelligence approaches leadership from 4 unique yet equally important aspects; Commitment, Character, Competency and Culture. In this conversation with Alan Kearns, Co-Founder and Managing Partner at CareerJoy, and Deborah Plant, Director of People and Culture Solutions, they will share this modern approach to leadership and how it pivots from traditional approaches to foster transformation over information.
