Developing leadership qualities
Peter Koestenbaum invites us to consider leadership as a mindset. Thinking like a great leader requires reconciling apparently contradictory qualities.
Renewing the creative momentum of your teams
To foster creativity, rather than going to search for talents and methods outside the company, it might be equally beneficial to rely on internal forces. How can you unleash the creativity of your own teams?
Reinforce your company’s societal commitment
Companies have a strong impact when they place their firepower at the service of societal challenges. But this requires a new way of thinking and new competences. How can you deliver on your CSR commitment?
Building trust
The level of trust is generally low in business organizations, while it constitutes a real performance challenge. How can you identify the behaviors that will enable you to build trust—or, conversely, that might destroy it?
Turn failure into a springboard
Company leaders generally perceive failure as a setback rather than a means to learn and improve. How can you make use of your failures—and help your employees do the same?
Matters of conscience at the heart of management
How to choose between different options when none of them clearly emerges as being the best? These dilemmas make us face ourselves: What is most important for us? What do we favor? What image of ourselves do we give others?
Develop your resiliency
In companies focused on agility, leaders are torn between expectations for clear-cut decisions and the necessity to adapt to changing conditions. In this context, how can they move forward without burning out?
Protect yourself against strategic blindness
Well-established companies that believe they are invulnerable are often in for a rude awakening. How can you avoid the tendency to ignore unpleasant truths?
