Making Organizations Adaptable: Building a Leadership Development Agenda that Works

Presenter: Ralph Jacobson, Founder of The Leader's Toolbox, coach, author, speaker, The Leader's Toolbox

Description

Finding the traditional leadership development approaches inadequate to meet the ever increasing leadership challenges, Ralph created The Leader’s Toolbox®. He will show us how to build companies of leaders by teaching them how to tackle the difficult challenges they face—-forever. He turns conventional wisdom upside down. Rather than focus on the abilities of individual leaders, he provides common leadership language, processes, and tools that allow leaders at all levels to break down the silos and do the leadership work together. He shows leaders what they have to do—-not what they have to be. As a result, the impact to organization performance is more dramatic and direct. The Leader’s Toolbox® methodology is easier to implement, creates greater leader engagement, more predictable in its outcome, and is far less expensive than mainstream leadership development methods.
