Modern Leadership | Ep 2

The skills of modern leadership, such as strategic thinking, emotional intelligence, resilience, and agility, have evolved owing to trends such as remote work, digital transformation, talent shortage, as well as economic uncertainty.

Keeping these in mind, how can you as leaders build future-proof skills in your workforce – what tools are needed, what works, and what needs to be looked deeper into?

In this second episode of our 4-part Modern Leadership podcast series, we pick the brains of Vikas Verma, Managing Director, Head Strategic HR, UOB, and Raghav Gupta, Managing Director, Coursera APAC.
The leaders also talk about what moving from a roles-based to a skills-based and growth mindset approach, means for leaders, ow leaders can look at democratising leadership skills for the entire workforce, and more.
