Course Introduction

In a traditional business or organization, it is common that actions and directions come from the top down. However, today's business world is fast-changing, and a new trend of leadership emerged in the study of Dr. Ron Heifetz and Marty Linsky at Harvard University, specifically present in open organizations. Adaptability is one of the key principles in running an open organization.
