Coming Up After the Summer! Sept PDM-Arnold Kennedy,CFPIM,CIRM Presents Attila The Hun: Leadership As A Change Agent This presentation will examine both ideas, and successful examples, of how some companies are inspiring and empowering their employees through the development of leadership skills within their management ranks. These skills can be learned and used to aid any organization in its goal of continuous improvement. Not long ago a book entitled, The Leadership Skills of Attila the Hun came across my desk. When most of us think of Attila’s leadership style we consider the concept of, kill all your vocal opposition and everyone else will follow your commands. However, this “power” enforced leadership only works until someone, or some group, with more power comes along. The question is, is that really leadership, or highly directive group conformance to an unclear direction. Attila knew the difference between power and leadership, and so do many major organizations today. |
