Leadership is a verb, not a title |
We often think of the leader as a position, but it is a set of skills anyone can use, whether or not they have the official job description. Learn more about the concept of agile leadership, which is designed for networks, especially when no one can tell anyone what to do. You’ll come away with new understanding and a few techniques to keep in your toolset. |
