- Learn how to shift the emphasis from a single, all-powerful leader to an interconnected community of leaders and followers with shared responsibilities.
- Discover how to refine, reimagine, and explore beyond the impulse to find the 鈥渞ight鈥 answer and unlock the unlimited possibilities of innovation.
