Session Focus: Leaders face tremendous challenges that are often not well understood or perceived by others. These hidden challenges arise from competing demands in the dynamic, ever-changing workplace and require leaders to transcend binary thinking to skillfully navigate seemingly contradictory priorities. This interactive session, "Hidden Leadership Challenges: Harmonizing Competing Demands for Leadership Breakthroughs", is designed to explore the art of navigating common polarities in the workplace. As HR talent leaders, understanding and acknowledging these polarities can be transformative in supporting leaders as they navigate these challenges. Join session leaders Mike Kester, Lead Belay, and Jane Shlaes, College of American Pathologists, for a thought-provoking discussion where we'll delve into practical strategies for navigating these complex leadership dynamics. Together, they will share insights on harmonizing competing demands, fostering balance, and utilizing the power of paradox to propel leadership success.   ELE produces this Learning Circle: Reskilling Talent Development.
