The economic climate demands a different approach to leadership
How leaders behave is more important than ever in the recession, according to Chief Executives. Even leaders well known for their pace-setting style have made dramatic changes.
"It's not helpful to crack the whip in these times. People take their cue for what's happening to the business from the way I behave," says David Hathorn, Chief Executive of Mondi Group Plc.
Evidence shows that people and organisations that thrive in tough times have certain features, and these can be learned. In one day, leaders can learn the mindsets and behaviours needed to lead in tough times, understand their own approach and work to improve their own abilities in these areas.
