Being on One’s Way: The Path to Leadership

ABSTRACT

Organizations often focus learning and development efforts for new and emerging leaders on building traits, skills or capabilities of model effective leaders and in doing so miss a foundational stage in the growth of leaders; namely establishing a dialogue towards leadership- as-action not leadership-as-role.
