A senior HR professional was seeking the latest leadership concepts which she would be using in a specific management training programme for the top leaders. These trainees were adept at their tasks, but had to be developed into holistic leaders. After much deliberation, it was realized that leadership fundamentals haven’t really changed much over the years or even decades. An aspirations vision and sound corporate strategy still unites people towards a goal. This strategy must include a list of choices to be adopted and those to be debunked. The right people need to be recruited to execute the strategy drafted. During the ongoing execution, focus has to be put on achieving the periodic results. To back up the strategy, constant innovation needs to be introduced to keep people excited. Leaders must understand their own strengths and weaknesses before they embark on leading others.
