Advisor to UN, government agencies, health, uniform services, education and service-driven organizations. https://amzn.to/3oa6JY3LEADER TO LEADER: LEADERSHIP APPROACHES ON DEVELOPING THE RESPONSIBLE LEADERSHIP ETHOS AND CAPABILITY TO SERVE, LEAD AND EXCEL IN ANY CONTEXT. Accepted learning can get in the way. It has often fostered mindsets and ways of seeing and doing things that have created a self-serving ethos and short-sighted leadership behaviour that underpin the contemporary and crisis contexts. The dominant B-school and "leadership industry" approach to learning has focussed on the idea of the individual agency of the organizational leader as received wisdom in the face of disconfirming evidence. The popular folklore of leadership links organizational success or failure directly to the actions of a powerful leader. The contemporary and crisis contexts requires a resilient principled leadership ethos to leverage leadership capability. The challenge is to cultivate and mentor a shared ethos, understanding and expression of "leader agency" as a belief in the social construction of shared meaning and purpose to achieve strategic outcomes to serve and lead.
