The new spin-off Millennial edition bridges the gap between young talent and tenured leadership by offering a common language for business discussion and strategy. The Self-Assessment Tool presents the five most important questions for any organization to ask. As the lead Editor, Co-Author, and Global Drucker Challenge judge, Joan will introduce participants to the self-assessment process and share actionable advice on how to use this resource within one’s organizations and for their own leadership development. Drucker’s wisdom is timeless and even more relevant to today’s youngest generation of aspiring leaders.
