How You Can Be a Successful Business Leader in Times of Crisis: Defining Expectations & Using Emotion to Inspire (Dr. James Bailey, The George Washington University, USA, 2 hrs.)

The purpose of this webinar is to show how leadership is mainly an emotional relationship. The fact that leadership is about emotion is supported by two decades of brain research. People choose their leaders because of how those leaders make them feel. Humans respond to the environment emotionally first. This is especially so in crisis. During crisis, the emotional state leaders bring about makes the difference between succeeding and floundering.
