It can mean something different for each generation, and it evolves over time. We believe that Millennials are the most critical – they are the future. The better you are at being an authentic leader, the more your Millennials employees will appreciate you.</span><br /></p> Fri, 22 Aug 2014 16:32:03 +0000 webfull 104675 at /channels /channels/news/central-reason-why-justin-trudeau-won-canadian-election-leadership-tone-256442 <p>Article written by Professor <strong>Karl Moore</strong></p> <p>An amazing comeback is what the media are calling it.

Many inmates have drive, a profit orientation, charisma, and a strong ability to influence. How can they turn those strengths into successful post-prison careers? In this post, we turn to Catherine Hoke, Founder and CEO of Defy Ventures, and learn how Defy is helping to do just that. </p> Tue, 09 Sep 2014 16:18:52 +0000 webfull 105139 at /channels /channels/news/millennials-work-purpose-not-paycheck-239359 <p><span>Article by <strong>Karl Moore</strong> and Sienna Zampino</span></p> Mon, 06 Oct 2014 19:25:08 +0000 webfull 105717 at /channels /channels/news/extroverts-tapping-your-inner-introvert-key-excellent-leadership-237226 <p><span>The CEO of a major multinational came to our ���ϲ����� MBA CEO Insights class and told us that, as an introverted leader, he had to put on his “game face” whenever he left his floor.
