The Power in Focusing on Solving Problems as a Leader

Manage[ment] Engagement
Leadership teams at the highest level within companies agree culture change is a high priority to continue to grow and be competitive in their respectful marketplaces. However, the trickle-down effect required to ensure such changes are implemented and effective, tends to lie solely on the shoulders of management teams.

In it, 4 women stand side by side, faces full of toothy grins in front of my childhood home.
