- Title
Rethinking the Leadership Agenda.
- Authors
Gibson, Rowan
- Abstract
This article reports that with capital markets now pulling the strings in business, senior executives either find the right strategies for growing shareholder value or find themselves out of a job. The author adds that this is creating an unprecedented challenge for senior executives and is leading to the creation of a new idea of what leadership is and should be. The author suggest that leaders need to be able to inspire high performance and create highly adaptive corporate cultures rather than just commanding and controlling employees like leaders of the past. Some other characteristics the author suggests are thinking outside the box, look beyond numbers when running the company, focusing on the core strategy and creating a solid network of friends.
