THE FUSE

To quote fellow C-suite consultant Mahan Tavakoli, “Many leaders aren’t even taking a six-week course or picking up a book. We’ve reached a point where time scarcity is used as a valid excuse for intellectual stagnation. We often promote people based on technical expertise and then expect them to lead by osmosis.”In short, the current reality is that there’s a belief in a lack of time for leadership development, yet leaders are expected to have difficult conversations about performance, hold people accountable and execute seamlessly.
