Abstract:
Whether we work in academia or industry, many of us will be called to be leaders. But what is leadership? What makes a great leader?
This presentation sets the foundation for leadership training. It describes the skills required of leaders, the attributes of great leaders and what good leaders do not do. Learn ways you can develop and apply your leadership skills. Learn the different levels of leadership, how to recognize at which level you are on, and how to be successful at each level. The distinction between leadership and management is discussed in detail.
