NEW LEADERSHIP QUALITIES YOU NEED IN THIS NEW WORLD

In “Third Opinion”, Dr. Saj-nicole Joni, chief executive in Cambridge International Group, presents four ways to change executive ability in a time of pervasive economic reversal.
Nowadays, time of broken finances, recession and strategic uncertainty, we need leaders who straddle both sides of the old world and can both spark innovations and execute it with efficiency.
The four steps for turning the personal leadership ability toward today reality are: check out what’s missing from your personal leadership portfolio and develop these abilities; take an inventory of the people around you; check your ability to productively engage in debate and conflict and don’t be alone. Crisis times call for a different kind of leadership fitness: Steady comportment, thoughtful optimism, patient discipline, self-knowledge and a long view.
Leaders will have an instinct and appetite for innovation along with the skill and curiosity to develop the end-to-end capability that delivers efficiently.

  1. In my point of view I do agree with the text and think that the four steps for turning the personal leadership could always be adopted even if we are not living in time of economical crisis. It is really important for leaders to develop technique skills and socialize with the team - evaluating, pouring out encouragement and recognizing the group. I believe that leader shipping nowadays is really tough but at the same time it could be a great opportunity to learn how to be successful through a very complex environment.

  2. I must admit that I agree with Dr. Saj-nicole Joni but somehow his pieces of advice sound like commom place: "be ready for evething, pray for the best and the world will help you out"! There is a russian saying that says "An optmist is just a badly-informed pessimist". Therefore do act on, do face it or just do something may still be another way to survive in troubled waters.

  3. The test shows how to be a good leadership. I really agree with the skills that the text proposes, but I believe that is not just follow the four steps. For be not everybody is ready to be a leadership. I really think that there are people who was born for that no matter in which place as a politician, as a priste,etc...
