How to Fix Leadership Development | Ryan Gottfredson | TEDxColeParkStudio

Leadership development is broken. Seventy-five percent of organizations rate their leadership development programs as not very effective. If we want to fix leadership development, we need to shift our focus away from horizontal development to vertical development. Ryan Gottfredson, Ph.D. is a cutting-edge leadership development author, researcher, and consultant. He helps organizations vertically develop their leaders primarily through a focus on mindsets. Ryan is the Wall Street Journal and USA Today best-selling author of Success Mindsets: The Key to Unlocking Greater Success in Your Life, Work, & Leadership. And, he is the author of the upcoming book, The Elevated Leader: Leveling Up Your Leadership Through Vertical Development. He is also a leadership professor at the College of Business and Economics at California State University, Fullerton.
