Two Leadership Skills You Won't Learn in B-School
MBA coursework does not always translate into real-world leadership competency. While exposure to effective strategies and tools is certainly helpful, experience is still the best teacher. Here are 2 tips that you won't always see in a textbook: - Resilience. In the real world, leading teams rarely resembles the lockstep prescriptions presented by case studies. On the contrary, employee interactions require a wide range of skills and a good dose of diligence, along with a shrewd ability to constantly construct solutions on-demand.
- Humility. True, the letters behind your name are a testament to your expertise, but earning an MBA is not a license to be an autocratic leader. Be slow to speak and quick to listen to those that you lead.
