Leadership Tasks for a Chaotic World

Course Overview

Peter Quarry outlines two leadership skills: providing staff with a compelling sense of purpose and encouraging in them the confidence that they can cope.  Companies lacking a purpose-driven culture financially underperform other companies by 42%. Conversely, purposeful leaders’ energy levels are 60% higher. Leaders that impart realistic possibilities and solutions and who promote competencies and continuous learning help staff to feel a sense of accomplishment.

Leaders can help their people in chaotic times by instilling them with a sense of purpose and developing a sense of confidence in their people’s skills and ability to cope.
