Public Sector CEOs: what behaviours support success, and which traits can derail performance?

This was the topic of our latest webinar.

After the success and feedback from our in-person event earlier this year, Marie Blakesley shared our extensive and unique study into the behaviours of over 1,000 current Chief Executives, and shortlisted candidates for Chief Executive roles. Highlighting key trends, patterns, insight into critical leadership skills, and behaviours, identifying risks and derailers, and how ready public sector CEOs are to tackle today’s challenges.
