Leadership Today: Interlacing Soft and Hard Skills

This panel symposium focuses on leadership as the interconnection of a wide range of skills and insights, and aims to engage participants in a visionary dialogue about the direction of leadership toward an unpredictable future. Consistent with the AOM 2017 Annual meeting theme, it approaches the topic of leadership from a broad, interconnected stance, emphasizing soft skills and hard skills as two critical elements at this interface. The story that today's workforce is looking for different skills and qualities in its leaders has become abundantly clear in the past decade, not only through a major shift in corporate leadership, but also through shifts in leadership qualities being taught in business schools and topics that leadership scholars focus on these days.

Specific focus points in this symposium: Purpose, Spirituality, and Emotional Intelligence, as they relate to leadership.
We invite you all to consider attending this symposium, and share your personal and organizational leadership viewpoints with us!
