SURVEYing/ Where Does Leadership Mastery Matter Most To You?

Ubud, Indonesia - 9 November 2014. In my recent leadership courses in Delft and Tokyo, the participants came from all over the world. They explored important questions, like what kind of leader they wanted to become? What leadership roles attracted them most? And what it will take for them to become an effective leader, with a focus on developing personal power rather than relying on position power? On the request of many aspiring leaders, I am now writing a book and creating an online leadership development program to support them.
