KTN: Leadership in SMEs – Are you investing in your #1 asset?

Did you know that 41% of high growth firms find deficiencies in leadership competencies to be an obstacle to growth? In a hyper competitive post pandemic labour market, small and medium sized enterprizes (SMEs) need to equip their leaders to attract and retain staff, as well as developing the next generation of leaders internally. In this session, Andy Jenkins from My Leadership Strengths will outline the case for leadership development in SMEs, dispel common myths about leadership, and offer a framework to support leadership development in a practical way.
