Is this Masterclass right for my team?
Crises, replete with both complexity and change, requires leaders to both lead and manage effectively.
• Addressing the urgent needs of the present is the work of management. You need to make immediate choices and allocate resources. The pace is fast, and actions are decisive.
• Leading, by contrast, involves guiding people to the best possible eventual outcome over an arc of time that extends through beginning, middle and end. The focus needs to be on what is likely to come next and readying to meet it. That means seeing beyond the immediate to anticipate the next three, four, or five obstacles.
Lt.General Raymond Noronha is a person who seen it all, experienced it all and successfully led his teams through multiple crises situations through a decorated career with the armed forces.
