Top LinkedIn Post
LinkedIn Post: Adam Grant from the Q&A at the Oslo Business Forum
In this week’s LinkedIn Post, Adam Grant shares his insights on ability vs. agility. In the past, hiring and promotions hinged on ability. Looking ahead, agility will define a leader’s value. Why did we choose this post? Because we believe it’s time to invest in individuals who embody a strong drive to learn and the flexibility to adapt. That is an essential skill that cannot be taught!
Podcast of the week
The Strategy Skills Podcast Episode 481 of Strategy Skills Podcast is amazing. In this episode, former CEO of AT&T Business, Anne Chow speaks on How to Lead Bigger. Why we chose it: Anne shares insights on how to lead outside traditional parameters. She has a unique perspective that we think you will enjoy.
Must-Read Article:
“How Business Leaders Can Safeguard Their Organizations In A World OF Political Uncertainty” -James Henderson, Forbes Council Member
This article seemed timely…and necessary. Let’s face it: We are living in a polarized time, and as leaders, it’s our job to navigate it cautiously. This article reminds us to remain neutral (that’s hard for me) and keep clear lines of communication. It also has us consider scenario planning and sociocultural tensions. It’s a must-read, now more than ever.
Recommended Book of the Week:
“The Rookie CEO, You Can’t Make This Stuff Up” by Bill Miller
We chose this one because we love the “PPLC” – Path to CEO Philosophy Leadership Style and how they shape Culture. While it’s not as smooth an acronym as CARE to Lead®, it is full of insights into how different styles of leadership drive corporate culture. It’s one you’ll enjoy, we’re sure!
