Providing visionary leadership is key if we are going to increase productivity, improve workforce skills and reduce costs. Administration can promote an employee into a management position but it cannot promote a person into a leadership position. The status of leadership is earned after the promotion. It is assigned not by administrators but by those employees who choose to trust and follow a leader.
Have you ever worked for a manager who was not a leader? Have you ever worked with a manager who was?
Richard Pimentel presents a powerful keynote presentation focused on: What are the qualities of management and how do they differ from the qualities of leadership? Can leadership be taught? Can leadership be predicted before promotion? How can Administrators evaluate leadership potential in its employees? Can a manager be effective without being a leader? Does a leader need to be a manager? Identifying leaders and developing their talent and commitment towards your company's goals and objectives is key to maintaining and building a strong workforce.
