18th Annual Kravis-de Roulet Conference
17th annual Kravis-de Roulet Conference The Early Seeds of Leadership: Growing the Next Generation of Leaders Today more than ever, there is a need for leadership. This need does not go unnoticed. We spend billions in our organizations attempting to develop leaders to provide compelling visions, manage their people effectively, and steer their organizations to profitability. Recent corporate scandals, however, suggest that important lessons of leadership are not always utilized. Corporate training in leadership is not the only place leadership skills are acquired. New leaders come to organizations with many leadership lessons and experiences learned at very young ages. Ensuring that these are positive experiences to help guide these young leaders in later life is important, but little is known about the best ways to encourage leadership development before individuals enter the workforce. The 17th annual Kravis-de Roulet Conference was held February 24, 2007 in Claremont. This year’s theme brought together an impressive slate of speakers including Howard Gardner, Harvard University, to discuss the many developmental influences on our next generation of leaders.
