A fascinating read in ERE breaks down how different leadership styles (Pragmatists, Stewards, Idealists, and Diplomats) can either accelerate or hinder your company's strategic goals. Key takeaway for hiring teams: We need to look beyond the typical "strong leadership experience" checkbox. A successful leader in one context might be a misalignment in another: * Chasing aggressive growth? Your Pragmatist leaders will thrive * Focusing on operational excellence? Stewards are your answer * Driving innovation? Look for those Idealists * Building team cohesion? Diplomats should be top of mind ? A leadership mismatch can ripple through an entire organization. Is it time to revisit those leadership job descriptions? ? #TalentAcquisition #ExecutiveRecruitment #ExecutiveSearch #HiringStrategy #Leadership https://lnkd.in/gEP4zWHh

Last week, Grey had the privilege of co-sponsoring the inaugural #UnleasHer event alongside A People Revolution, and what an incredible experience it was! It was refreshing and inspiring to come together in a relaxed environment, openly sharing real-life situations we face as female leaders. The candid dialogue, shared wisdom, and authentic connections made this event truly unforgettable. A heartfelt thank you to our phenomenal speakers for leading the charge: Leah Pitzenberger, Kari Murphy, Anna Schupp, and our very own Alissa Henriksen. These amazing women brought bold perspectives and valuable insights to the table, leaving us all inspired and ready to tackle the challenges of leadership with confidence and camaraderie. Thank you to everyone who joined us. Let’s keep this momentum going as we empower one another and build a future of work where women thrive! #UnleasHer #WomenInLeadership #Empowerment #LeadershipDialogues #GreySearch #APeopleRevolution #GreatnessInGrey
