Real World Leadership Part four

Organizations confront complex public pressures these days to go beyond optimizing shareholder value. More than ever before, they also are asked to take responsibility for how they affect their employees, the environment, their communities, and society as a whole. They must try to deploy their resources to help communities and improve people’s lives.

To explore this issue, Korn Ferry conducted a comprehensive global survey on leadership development generating more than 7,500 responses from business and HR leaders in over 100 countries. This is the fourth and final report in a series that discusses the results and implications of our global research on leadership development. Key findings illuminate issues surrounding corporate social responsibility, sustainability, and purpose-driven leadership development.
