On August 17, 2009 the Johnson A. Edosomwan Leadership Institute will offer a one-day Winning Leaders and Managers curriculum entitled: Business Acumen and Transformational Leadership. This program will be taught by one of the leading researchers, authors, and instructors in the field, Dr. Johnson A. Edosomwan, after whom the Leadership Institute is named. This course will be hosted by the Institute and held at the James W. McLemore Executive Education Center at the University of Miami School of Business.
The Leadership Institute has recently launched its Winning Leaders and Managers series, and the program is successfully rejuvenating and transforming individuals, organizations, and cultures across the country. Right here in one of the largest counties in Florida, over 250 managers have received this curriculum with ecstatic feedback. One participant said of the program, “In addition to the session being extremely informative, it was very easy to relate every piece of the material to what we do.”
According to the International City and County Managers Association, “The positions of chief administrative officers, city and county managers and assistants require higher skill levels, more creative problem-solving and an ability to inspire the local government workforce to achieve ever-increasing productivity and performance levels.” In fact, leadership development at the mid-manager and executive levels remains a priority for leading cities and counties across this nation, even in these tough economic times.
