Overcoming the leadership challenge and create an organization of exceptional leadership

Most organizations are operating at a mediocre level when it comes to leadership. Employees who are excellent at their technical job are often promoted to a leadership position, creating a cycle of ineffective leaders. The traditional approach to leadership has proven ineffective.
According to Gallup, just 33 percent of the American workforce is fully engaged in their jobs and 16 percent are actively disengaged. It’s never been more challenging to be a leader than it is today. Employees are expecting more from their organizations. They want a sense of purpose and meaning in their work, a supportive environment, consistent feedback, and leaders who develop them to their potential.
In order to operate at an exceptional level, you need exceptional leaders. Effective, exceptional leaders can transform your credit union into a profitable and successful organization with productive, highly-engaged employees who provide remarkable service to your members.
