Specifically, the need to be strategic in outlook through what he describes as 'deep curiosity'. We explore what this means and how leaders can demonstrate this in order to progress. Finally, we also discuss the importance of creating an outcome based culture, how leaders must create this and the benefits it can create for organisations and employees alike.  Ultimately, Kim agrees that while servant leadership and a collaborative approach to leadership is required, a good leader is one who "cares personally and challenges directly". A fascinating discussion indeed. Join us and be prepared to be challenged by Kim's thoughts on leadership.
