Three Conversations about Leadership by Dr Richard Claydon.

Gart Taubes, the science journalist famous for his revelations of the role sugar plays in the rise of metabolic ill-health, argues that to understand a scientific discipline you need to be aware of its history.
How and why did people start to think, believe and behave this way?
In this DD, I am going to look at three inflection points relate to the development of the dominant leadership discourse.

1. The call to action – from macho management to maestro leadership
2. The cultural system – the entanglement of leadership and culture
3. The moral imperative – how leadership became a moral act

The breakouts will invite you to reflect on how each inflection continues to ripple through modern organisational and societal life.
