The changing nature of the environment in which they operate explains some of this but what seems to be increasingly evident is that the leadership responsible for guiding companies in such circumstances is struggling to cope.

This webinar hosted by Peter Wright, CEO and Founder at Organisational Fingerprinting Consultancy, will look at:
– Why companies seem to struggle with ‘constant change’
– Why the absence of any form of leadership development concept in many companies is contributing to the problem
– What our pre-occupation with functional or expertise careers at the expense of more general management careers is causing to happen in companies
– What can be done by almost any company to start to rectify the problem.
