Leadership Central: step 24
Leave a Comment » | 613 Views | 0 Comments » |
We’ve just started a company-wide leadership programme in a major organisation. It came about because a junior manager, Sam, stepped into the leader space and as the chief executive passed his desk, he gave him a copy of Leadership Plain and Simple, and said ‘read that, we need more of it round here!’ The chief executive came back a couple of weeks later and said ‘I agree, please arrange a meeting with someone in Steve’s team.’
So this is to formally declare that this week is:
‘Pass a Copy of the Book to the Chief Exec’ Week!!
The serious point is that here’s another example of how you like Sam can make a difference way bigger than you might first think. If you allowed yourself for a while to think about the difference you would like to make to your organisation and beyond, what is the Future you would imagine? And what would a bold step in that direction look like? This week, why not take it?
Steve Radcliffe will be speaking at our Annual Conference, book your ticket at bookings@marketing-society.org.uk.
Steve will also soon be running two open Future – Engage – Deliver programmes on November 8 and 26 in London. For more info go to www.futureengagedeliver.com/opendays/
If you haven’t managed to read the previous steps, follow the Leadership Journey to catch up.
