Four Lessons in Adaptive Leadership
內容大綱
The armed services have been in the business of leadership development much longer than the corporate world has. Today's military leaders need tools and techniques to face a fast-changing and unpredictable type of enemy-so the armed services train their officers in ways that build a culture of readiness and commitment. Business leaders need to foster an adaptive culture to survive and succeed, given that they, too, face unprecedented uncertainty-and new types of competitors. Michael Useem and his colleagues at the Wharton School incorporate exposure to military leadership into MBA and executive MBA programs. Highlights include direct contact in the classroom with leaders in the U.S. Army, the U.S. Marine Corps, and the Department of Defense, along with field-training exercises and battlefield visits. The programs are designed to help students connect viscerally to essential leadership lessons. Four are featured in the article: (1) Meet the troops. Creating a personal link is crucial to leading people in challenging times, (2) Make decisions. Making good and timely calls is the crux of leadership, (3) Mission first. Focus on common purpose and eschew personal gain, (4) Convey strategic intent. Make the objectives clear, but give people the freedom to execute on them in their own way.
