If you understand leadership and have been dubbed a great leader in the past, do you believe that you will remain the successful captain of your business using the methods you learnt at college, from your handed down manuals, your emulation of your predecessors who led the organization for years and many other sources/methods that were used by great leaders to achieve results?

According to the Economic World Forum article by Paolo Gallo 04/2019 6th edition" Disruption in technology is not only here to stay but is moving faster than we thought." The real question is whether leadership is also adapting to this new business environment at the same pace?

Agility is the new deal breaker in leadership as leaders have to embrace and celebrate change.
