Leadership Learnings - How to Be the Person Others Want to Follow

While there are many definitions of leadership, my personal favourite is the one described by Marcus Buckingham and Ashley Goodall in their book Nine Lies About Work, “there is only one thing that will make you a leader. Followers.” This outcome-oriented definition shifts the focus from the so-called leader to the impact and influence they are having on others.

Christine Brown-Quinn, The Female Capitalist® welcomes Leila Pilgrim, Legal Advisor and Non-Executive Director, to the Career Masterclass Series to see how she has learned to be a leader, not by designation, but rather by her followership.

Join the webinar, “Leadership Learnings - How to Become the Person Others Want to Follow” on Wednesday, the 20th of November 2024 to get the inside scoop on how to attain this impactful and sustainable variety of leadership.
