Ethical Leadership: Challenges and Opportunities
| Magdalena Nowicka Mook (ICF CEO and Executive Director), Dr. Riza Kadilar (President of EMCC Global), Katherine Tulpa (Global CEO of AC & Executive Director, Wisdom8), Anjali Nair (IAC), Panel discussion Abstract: Leadership comes with responsibilities and influence to visualize, materialise, values, objectives and opportunities for the organisations they lead. Leadership within the field of coaching, some may argue is a nuanced position in professional life. How do you lead while remaining true to the tenets of coaching: serving others to meet their developmental and wellbeing needs? How do leaders ethically adapt to the changing landscape of coaching and be socially responsible? How do leaders work to create inclusive workplaces? This session will discuss various aspects of leadership challenges and opportunities within their coaching leadership roles. |
