Guests: Lynn Shollen & Sam Wilson, researchers at Christopher Newport University and Swinburne University of Technology
Odds are good you aren’t happy with our leaders. Less than 1/3 of Americans believe their leaders are effective.
That’s according to the Leadership Attitudes Survey. Dr. Lynn Shollen joins us to share more of the results. Dr. Sam Wilson chimes in to reveal insights from the Australian Leadership Index. The two studies had remarkably similar findings.
The bottom line: most of us feel our leaders are too far removed from the everyday experiences of ordinary people.
So what can leaders do about it? Listen in to find out!
