Most leadership programs fail to deliver results because they focus on what leaders know and do. Vertical development is effective because it focuses on who leaders are becoming. Rather than downloading more skills, it elevates a leader’s mindset and ability to make sense of complexity with greater emotional and cognitive sophistication. Leaders can transform their organizations by evolving their inner meaning-making system, enabling them to lead with greater depth, wisdom, and effectiveness.Working on Purpose is broadcast live Tuesdays at 6PM ET and Music on W4CY Radio (www.w4cy.com) part of Talk 4 Radio (www.talk4radio.com) on the Talk 4 Media Network (www.talk4media.com).
