Pierre Casse: vision is a dream with a deadline!

On April 3 the SKOLKOVP MBA master class “Leadership: the new wave” hold by Pierre Casse, Professor of Leadership at the SKOLKOVO business school, took place on the Moscow School of Management SKOLKOVO Campus. Pierre Casse, a leading world expert in leadership, has told what it means to be a leader in the modern economic conditions. Below you will find his key points:

If the leadership is not around to turn different challenges into something new (ideas, opportunities etc.), then the mankind is regressing.

It's wrong to have an HR-department in your company - people are not resources anymore!

You should have a Human Talents department instead.

3 basic kinds of leadership: strategic leadership, organizational leadership and people leadership

Strategic leadership is about where you are going and how to get there.

It's a projection to the future, what you must do to make it happen.

Organizational leadership is about creating a proper structure, a system and launching processes in order to use your resources wisely.

People leadership is about creating opportunities for your employees to perform, to enjoy, to grow professionally and to contribute.

What is vision? Vision is a dream with a deadline!

True leaders really care about politics: they want to be sure, that right people know right facts about their company at a right time.

Success will come to those leaders who don't just think outside the box, but invent new boxes.

What of those points do you find the most significant? Leave your opinion in the comments!
