One common attribute #businessschools value is #leadership. If you lack managerial experience, don’t worry. Schools understand you're early in your career. Using examples like convincing others or mentoring colleagues drawn from work or your #extracurricular activities can be great ways to highlight your leadership. Reflect on the leader you aspire to be and share how you’ve shown these traits professionally and personally. #topMBAs #MBAapplication #MBAessays

The Daring Leadership response to collecting gold stars is to give gold stars. What got us promoted and made us indispensable can hinder our leadership growth. By prioritizing the recognition and development of others, we can continue to grow as leaders. Are you a daring leader? -Brené Brown #Leadership #ProfessionalGrowth #DareToLead

What a beautiful session yesterday at the leadership academy where campus leadership was dissected so well. One very major thing I learnt is, "As a leader, there must be people that don't like you, you should not be easily swayed by anybody and you please anybody just to look good". Do the right thing and things would be right. #LeadershipAcademy #LEAD #TheParadigmShift #SEE #InspireTheFuture #JCINUNIBEN #JCINIGERIACollegiate #JCINIGERIA #JCI

Insightful keynote by Gianpiero Petriglieri on leadership at AACSB Deans' Conference. Lots of food for thought and an idea you don't often hear in leadership courses: "leadership is a kind of love". As a researcher, I liked the distinction he made between asking people to define leadership vs asking them to describe an experience of leadership. They may seem like the same question but they actually produce very different outcomes. #AACSB #leadership #businesseducation

There are lessons of value for today’s leaders in learning leadership from Genghis Khan. His timeless leadership qualities which include ability to communicate ideas clearly, flexibility in changing environments, promotion of unity and recognizing competence. His success was premised on innovation support, discipline maintenance, effective communication flow, absence of micro-management and resilience towards hardships. The fact that these principles can be applied to today’s world speaks volumes about what it takes anyone who wants to be a leader with an impact and purpose. #Leadership #aviodmicromanagement #historyreading

This training has so much of what we already know as executives, but what happens is that regardless of your knowledge, you can be rest assured it will be tested and the output is that your knowledge becomes more refined and as an individual well seasoned. It shapes you to become a more professional leader. Don't mention the war stories from other leaders, it's just amazing what we can learn from others. An important programme in the journey for every exec. #directors #instituteofdirectorsintanzania #iodt #leadership

This quality is not just about being a good manager or a trusted supporter It is all about earning respect through effort, leading and displaying a good example. Good leaders communicate well. They think about their audience and how their words are interpreted. They are also big-picture strategic and concentrate on long-term strategies as well as more immediate issues. Think about a great leader you have admired either at work, in your family or even from history or alive today. What makes their leadership special? What do they do that ultimately works? Perhaps following their lead may help you! Learn more: https://bit.ly/4aY8fEI #Accountants #Leadership #SoftSkills
