The Extraordinary Leader demystifies leadership and explains five key insights that distinguish a truly extraordinary leader from a good or “average” leader.

This program, based on the extensively researched book by Jack Zenger and Joseph Folkman, will help leaders shift their way of thinking about leadership from the conventional idea that leaders are born, to the fact that anyone can be a great leader. They concluded that leaders who just move from “good” to “a little bit better” don’t make much of a difference. It’s not until one becomes a “great” leader that there will be a significant impact.
