What Makes a 21st Century Leader?
There are more than 10,000 books in Amazon on the topic of leadership. I've read many of them. But even leadership development experts can't possibly read themall. So let me summarize what some of our newest research has found.
Our research shows that 21st century leadership competencies are different, but at its core leadership has not changed. It's justvery hard.

"Common sense" comes from experience, judgement, and a practical way of understanding how problems are solved.
2. Great Leaders are Learners.
Great leaders understand that they areconstantly learning. It's often called "learning agility" in the HR field. These people always study their market, their customers, their discipline, and their own organization. They never stop learning.Are you the type of person who reads a lot, questions your own thinking, and always tries to learn from mistakes? Or are you the one telling others what they need to learn?
If you are the former,chances are you're a great leader (or becoming one). If you're the latter, you better find the right place to fit, because once the environment changes (and it always does), you'll fail.
