James Kouzes on Rising to the Leadership Challenge

Running Time: 9 minutes 19 seconds

Canadian Management Centres Business Intelligence podcast series is pleased to present the leadership podcast Rising to the Leadership Challenge, with special guest James Kouzes.

James Kouzes will discuss during this podcast the foundation of his new book The Leadership Challenge. He will also explore why it is that when most of us think of a leader we automatically think of a companys President or CEO or a Government Official, but it is the front line leaders like the Middle Managers that are in the majority and most importantly the ones that have the largest impact and influence.

James Kouzes will review and give real life examples of the five basic tactics that all great leaders should use to motivate:

1. Set Example(s) of Common Goal(s)
2. Aspire to Shared Vision
3. Challenge the Existing Process
4. Enable Others to Act
5. Celebrate Victories
