Competencies: Strategic Thinking
Who are the key influencers in your organization? Who are the risk-takers? Is ambiguity feared, or is it embraced? In talent management organizations, the key influencers and risk-takers often sit at the top of the organizational chart. The vast majority of the team fears uncertainty. On the other hand, talent leadership organizations embrace ambiguity in every corner of the organization. People at all levels and functions feel supported and are encouraged to take risks, to exert their influence. We will explore the differences between managing people and leading talent and discuss strategies for building an organizational culture that motivates, inspires and challenges people to lead from where they are.
