Emerging Leaders

Throughout the world, a new generation of leaders is emerging. But what skills will these up-and-coming managers need to lead most effectively in this new era?

In both developed and emerging nations, the nature and pace of political and economic events demands new ideas, skills and approaches to leadership. The deep-seated "status quo" of how a government "should" operate is no longer a valid solution. That's where our executive education program for emerging leaders comes in.
