Podcast details
Technical and general information from the podcast's RSS feed.


Because the role of leadership is changing, we now need new leadership skills. What if unleading was one of them? Let’s explore the apparent paradox, the new leadership development strategies required, and examples of these new leadership skills. Let’s hear from some of the sharpest change agents and thought leaders of the world: people involved in systems thinking, teamwork design, community engagement and volunteer mobilization. Their insights challenge everything we think about leadership. They help create new possibilities for employee engagement and performance improvement. We can collectively transform leadership from top-down hierarchies to empowered people leading together. We can build workplace cultures that encourage action, workingwell, autonomy, and accountability.
