Sparks: Are You Doing a Good Job as a Leader? How to Be a Lighthouse for Your Organization

Description
Is leadership changing or staying the same? Leadership today is harder than ever, with rising pressure from all angles—public scrutiny, polarized workplaces, and a workforce that's losing interest in climbing the leadership ladder. If leadership is this tough, why should anyone step up? We need MORE leaders, NOT FEWER.

Leadership today requires self-awareness, continuous growth, and a willingness to challenge the status quo. ________________ Start your day with the world’s top leaders by joining thousands of others at Great Leadership on Substack.
