Four Intelligences of Transformational Leadership
Overview
Leading Like Lincoln identifies the four leadership attributes that enabled the 16th president’s extraordinary achievements. Real stories from Lincoln’s life illustrate how he used these various intelligences to influence people, resolve conflict and transform the country. Current research on how the brain works is used to explain why and how these methods achieve desired results. Participants engage in simulations that allow them to practice and assess the degree to which they employ or need to develop these attributes.
Most executives face the need to transform their companies and lead employees through change. Experts in organization change have identified major steps in this process.
