Leadership is changing fast and if ASTD is right in 2012 Leadership Handbook– a new kind of leader is already on the horizon! Could any of the new era leaders listed below help to usher in that finer future we all crave?
Dr. Jon Warner
Dr. Jon Warner at Leadership and Management posted 50 blogs listed below using the Alexa rank, a ranking raw score for web site popularity. Alexa measures how popular a site is (from 1 being Google, 2, Facebook and 3, YouTube, all the way down to the 40 millionth or so active site on the web as of July 2012).
Dr. Warner included names of the individual bloggers here, and a brief summary about the blog. Curious about leadership that ASTD suggests will be new and different in coming era, I posed critical questions to learn new-Century skills from top leaders on Warner’s list below.
Hope you too will add a mind-bender of your own or help respond to one of mine.
