In Challenging Economic Times, Leadership Training Is an Edge
The industry may have a workforce crisis on its hands, but the quality of its leadership is also under pressure, particularly as firms and other organizations face a challenging future. Ensuring that employees from the CEO on down can not only run a business day-to-day but also handle crises, prompt teamwork and inspire innovation takes more than management skills—it requires an effective leader.
Many great industry leaders are naturally gifted or refined their skills on the job under fire. But companies and other entities now are taking more deliberate steps to educate and groom the next generation of leaders, whether they are in boardrooms, on jobsites or still on campus.
