Innovating Leadership: Co-Creating Our Future
Business:Management
Guest: Nancy Adler, S. Bronfman Chair in Management at McGill University
There’s not just an art to leadership; art improves leadership!
That’s the core point of Dr. Nancy Adler’s discussion in this episode. A consultant and professor at McGill University, she’s found that art enables leaders to shift perspectives more readily, thus seeing solutions more effectively. That broadness of thought is more critical than ever: in the emerging business climate, what a leader knows is becoming far less relevant than the leader’s ability to shift perspectives and continually learn new suites of knowledge and skills.
