The Great Leadership Debate – Canberra

If you are interested in leadership development and coaching and live in Canberra, you should get along to Unit 8 / 9 Sydney Ave, Barton to listen to another iteration of the Great Leadership Debate where Randal gets to argue with an organisational psychologist about whether leaders are born or made.

Previously he sparred with Peter Zarris but this time he is paired against Dr Elizabeth Allworth. Elizabeth is a prominent and accomplished organisational psychologist who this year won the prestigious Elton Mayo Professional Practice Award. Elizabeth is a principal at Allworth Juniper and will take the position that measureable personal attributes and qualities do make a difference in leadership. Randal will again argue that leadership is a social phenomenon and it is the leader’s  relationship with the group that determines the quality and effectiveness of leadership and not the personal qualities of the leader.

These debates are always fun and informative so if you are lucky enough to be in Canberra (☺) Tuesday 13 October come along to  Unit 8 / 9 Sydney Ave, Barton. You can book online here or find out more here.
