The central question

Work has changed.
Leadership has not

Organizations have transformed technology, work and delivery faster than they have transformed leadership capability.

The result is not simply a shortage of leaders. It is a mismatch between the strategic work organizations must deliver & the leadership capability they have deliberately assessed, developed & deployed.

Does this organization have the leadership capability to carry its technological & strategic ambition into responsible & sustained value?
