Leadership: Balancing the Many and the One
Please join us for the coming meeting of our Alumni Association with a honorable guest speaker - prof. Mike Pratt who will bring some of the current research on leadership and how it influences the management process within any organization. Prof. Pratt will discuss leadership tension and dilemma in two ways: as demands for leaders to be "authentic" or true to their own values while also being responsive to stakeholders; and as a respond to trends towards embracing the diverse competency, skills, and expertise of each individual employee, while also maintaining an overall sense of a unified organization.
