What Kind of Leader Are You?

August 1, 2018 | MIT Sloan Management Review | Leadership

Not every leader is wildly charismatic or cut from the same cloth as other leaders in the organization. This collection of articles from MIT Sloan Management Review examines the ways leaders can turn their weaknesses into strengths, overcome their personal deficits, and position themselves to stay ahead of the curve.

Articles included with this collection:

How to Overcome a Power Deficit by Jean-Louis Barsoux and Cyril Bouquet

Assembling Your Personal Board of Advisors by Yan Shen, Richard D. Cotton and Kathy E. Kram

The Surprising Benefits of Nonconformity by Silvia Bellezza, Francesca Gino and Anat Keinan

The New World of Work by Martha E. Mangelsdorf

The Five Steps All Leaders Must Take in the Age of Uncertainty by Martin Reeves, Simon Levin, Johann D. Harnoss, and Daichi Ueda
