Leadership and the development of future and existing leaders are priorities for any organisation. But enduring myths about what makes for good leadership, combined with a lot of poor practice in leadership development, leave the space muddied and full of myths and misunderstandings.
The experienced and accredited workplace psychologists at WorkLifePsych have launched a campaign to improve the quality of leadership development bust the myths that confuse the leadership conversation.
In this first session in the series, Dr. Richard MacKinnon and Dr. Rachael Skews will explain the benefits of including Psychological Flexibility in your leadership development curriculum. This includes:
