As we navigate challenging times, a clear requirement has emerged. To deal with constant and significant change organizations must act with integrity and possess a healthy culture.  Those two aspects require leaders of good character. We intuitively know this and talk about good leaders but what does it really mean? Good character means being competent, demonstrating unfailing respect, integrity, compassion and courage.

Kathleen's presentation provides practical, concrete tools, tips and actions that help to build leaders and organizations of good character.

 

Objectives

  1. Define leadership character

  3. Describe a character culture (pillars, values and behaviours)
