Self-Leadership at Work: The HR Skill No One Trains You For
Presented by Desi Allums
Most workplace conflict, burnout, and performance issues are not skill problems they’re self-leadership problems. HR can’t fix what individuals won’t own.
Key Talking Points:
• Why emotional regulation is now a business competency
• The difference between accountability and blame
• How self-leadership impacts culture, retention, profit and trust
