Recommendation

Rose M. Patten, a prominent Canadian businesswoman and Chancellor of the University of Toronto, set out to explore how leadership evolves in difficult circumstances and to pinpoint essential leadership abilities. Her resulting framework, the “Big 8,” was the subject of 25 one-week sessions of discussion and debate in Toronto’s Rotman School of Management and the BMO Executive Leadership Programs. Patten highlights common myths about the eight pivotal leadership capabilities she identifies and encourages leaders to make the most of self-awareness, feedback, intention, adaptability and good character.

Take-Aways

  • Critical challenges can make leaders stronger.
  • Three game changers affect leadership: Stakeholder demands, the workforce and changing strategies.
  • Four fallacies about leadership make adaptability and rapid change more difficult.
