Hello and welcome to THE NOOC 3.
I am Maria and I will help David and Álvaro
in some of the lessons of this course.
It is a pleasure to be with all of you.
Many times we wonder what makes a good leader.
There are many theories, frameworks, studies, papers and a lot of research.
And leadership is shown as a key aspect in any organization.
According to Dr. Manfred Kets, Chair of Leadership Development at INSEAD,
“What distinguishes great organizations from mediocre ones is
the attitudes of their people!
Organizations that will set the standard in the XXI century have leaders
who will get the best out of their people because the people believe
that their leaders are authentic, their colleagues are trustworthy
and their work is meaningful.”
Please read the following article that will serve as an introduction
and I will see you in a few minutes.
