Strategic Components of Executive Leadership

On Demand Course

Instructor: Larry Hammond, Sr.

Duration: 1 HR

What You'll Learn

Most organizations have strong operational leaders. Many ascended to their leadership roles from the ranks of managers and supervisors and are adept in their operational abilities. They tend to work to maintain the status quo. Most lack the know-how, experience, and confidence to tackle what one of my college professors used to call wicked problems. These problems can’t be solved with a single solution or diminutive actions. Their causes seem incomprehensible, and their solutions are daunting. Wicked problems require complex remedies and strategic analysis to overcome the challenges. Often these problems mean that institutions need to completely transform how they do business. Leaders that challenge the prevailing view, which can act on big and small picture items at the same time, can change course as needed. They need to lead with inquiry, engagement, and advocacy while operating from a deeply held humility and respect for others. Operational pressures can certainly be the preoccupation of most leaders’ attention. This course will help you take the steps necessary to move towards greater strategic leadership. It will focus on best practices and practical strategies that will guide executive leaders in incorporating strategic leadership components. This material will help executive leaders expand their strategic impact on the organization and drive strategic thinking throughout their organizations.
