From Chief of Answers to Leader of Co-creators

Webcast: December 1, 2009

The business world has become a place where creativity drives results, and executable ideas are the core of strategic and competitive advantage. But bright, talented, and motivated people cannot jointly create effective strategies until the fundamental enablers of collaboration are in place. Without responsibility-sharing, decision-making, and idea-generation protocols, individual assets may be limited by organizational hierarchy. The new leader of co-creators gains enormous leverage by helping to increase the quality of ideas, speed up decision making, and solve the toughest problems throughout the organization. Collaborative leaders create conditions for their company to outshine the competition by out-thinking them, out-creating them, and out-innovating them repeatedly. If your role is to help leaders and all contributors in the organization learn to collaboratively formulate and execute a winning strategy, this webcast is for you!
