Leadership Competencies

The Leadership Competencies Model

The future of your organization will be determined by its leaders.  Leaders find the strategy and measure themselves on how well they achieved the desired results. Leaders need to communicate clearly, lead compassionately, and make decisions wisely.  To create leadership excellence in your organization you need to address the four aspects of The Leadership Competency Model:

• Business skills
• People skills
• Leadership skills
• Self-mastery

The Leadership Competency Model was developed by Enneagram in Business expert Ginger Lapid-Bodga and published in her book, What Type of Leader Are You? It has been proven effective with leaders from the best organizations in the world.  Here is a brief description of each competency.
