Ep. 13 Pitfalls of Organizational Leadership

In this episode Drs. Kutz and Konin "POKE THE BEAR." For example, volunteerism is not leadership. Despite that fact, many organizations reserve leadership positions and titles for those who have a history or penchant for volunteering. This tendency reduces the likelihood that other (maybe even qualified) leaders get involved or have opportunity to get involved. Furthermore, volunteer-based leadership recruitment initiatives hinder cognitive diversity needed among teams… and a few other interesting ideas. Drs. Kutz and Konin are faculty in the DAT program at Florida International University.
