Program overview
In a dynamic and complex business environment, leadership should be flexible and agile enough to adapt and respond to the changing needs of the organization and its employees.

Our research found that leaders of high-performing companies create the environment — the operating system — in which trust, clarity and momentum flourish
Schlomo Ben-Hur
Leadership is less about personally driving results and more about creating the right conditions for others to deliver. Impact that leaders have is the environment, or operating system, they create for their team and business.
