A good leader gets things done; a great leader aspires, inspires, and achieves more. The Leadership Challenge is about how leaders mobilize others to want to accomplish extraordinary things in organizations. It’s about the things leaders do to transform values into actions, vision into realities, and challenges into opportunities. It’s leadership that makes a positive difference in the workplace, creating a climate where collaboration and innovation drive remarkable results. Join bestselling co-author Barry Posner as he presents the latest data on the Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership (the framework for the Leadership Challenge) and the Leadership Practices Inventory.
