Jim Kouzes & Barry Posner

September 18th 2012

Kings Place, London

The Leadership ChallengeJim Kouzes and Barry Posner are co-authors of the award-winning and best-selling book, The Leadership Challenge. This book has been selected as one of the Top 10 books on leadership of all time, was a BusinessWeek best seller and has sold over 1.8 million copies in more than twenty languages.

Jim and Barry have co-authored more than a dozen other leadership books, including A Leader’s Legacy, Credibility: How Leaders Gain It and Lose It amongst others. They also developed the highly acclaimed Leadership Practices Inventory, a 360-degree questionnaire for assessing leadership behaviour, which is one of the most widely used leadership assessment instruments in the world.

The Conference

In their presentation they will examine The Leadership Challenge. The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership® resulted from an intensive research project to determine the leadership competencies that are essential to getting extraordinary things done in organizations. To conduct the research, Jim Kouzes and Barry Posner collected thousands of "Personal Best" stories—the experiences people recalled when asked to think of a peak leadership experience.

Despite differences in people's individual stories, their Personal-Best Leadership Experiences revealed similar patterns of behaviour. The study found that when leaders are at their personal best, they:

  • Model the Way
  • Inspire a Shared Vision
  • Challenge the Process
  • Enable Others to Act
  • Encourage the Heart
