OUR APPROACH: COMPETITIVE LEADERSHIP
•The most critical mission of a leader is to ensure
the Stakeholders satisfaction by displaying
exceptional leadership qualities collaboratively
with other leaders in the organization.
•In most of the Leadership Models, there is a
critical missing part: they are mainly ignoring
the “team dynamics” while focusing only on the
individual leadership competencies. The
business results are showing us that, they both
are equally critical for a company’s success.
•Competitive Leadership focuses on a leader’s individual leadership competencies on
one hand and the collaborative results in the leadership team on the other hand.
