Bonus Book Giveaway: FAN is giving away copies of Leadership Intelligence to randomly selected Zoom attendees. Details on the webinar registration page.
Leadership can be rewarding, but it is also deeply demanding. Leaders must deliver results now while planning for the long term, think strategically while managing the daily friction that arises on any team. Technology is reshaping the work in generation-defining ways, and the division of labor between human and machine keeps shifting. What does it take to lead intelligently through all that?
In her new book Leadership Intelligence: Science-Backed Strategies for Mastering 21 Everyday Management Challenges economist and executive coach Caroline Webb brings the science-backed approach that made her first book, How to Have a Good Day, an enduring success to leaders seeking to raise their game. Rooted in psychology, neuroscience, and behavioral economics, and brought to life by real stories of world-class leaders, the book offers an integrated system for mastering the 21 challenges organizations and teams face most often.
Webb arranges these around three strengths of a great leader: making wise choices, inspiring people to perform at their best, and building resilience through ups and downs. Written in a clear, engaging style, Leadership Intelligence shows that leadership is something anyone can build and cultivate over time to handle hard situations with grace, decide with clarity, and lift a team to greatness.
Webb will be in conversation with Jonathan Haidt, Ph.D., the Thomas Cooley Professor of Ethical Leadership at New York University’s Stern School of Business and the New York Times bestselling author of several books, including The Anxious Generation, The Coddling of the American Mind, and The Righteous Mind.
This event is suitable for youth ages 12 and up. It will be recorded and available on FAN’s website and YouTube channel.
