How do you view organizational politics? What do we really mean when we talk about being politically savvy? And what is the link between gender, political skill and effective leadership? Join this webinar for a fresh look at knowledge, skills and behaviors that contribute to political adeptness and better understand the role these competencies play in realizing your leadership potential. To explore this topic, the HBA is pleased to welcome Jean Brittain Leslie, Kimberly Fox, and Laura Butler to this conversation.
