Thriving in today’s diverse and complex marketplace requires strong global leadership. Today’s leaders – and tomorrow’s – must be capable of understanding the world and navigating its complexities. Darden Dean Scott C. Beardsley, who before becoming dean oversaw the talent development of McKinsey’s more than 12,000 professionals worldwide, believes that leadership starts with people, having the ability to lead others and to get the best out of them.

On Thursday, June 8th from 8:00 - 9:30 am, AmCham Shanghai will host a talk featuring Scott C. Beardsley, Dean of the University of Virginia Darden School of Business, where he will talk about what it takes to be a modern, effective leader at the AmCham Shanghai Conference Center.

In this talk, Beardsley will share some secrets on how to become a successful leader, including aligning people with a mission and emphasizing not just skills but integrity, trust and respect (an increasingly rare combination). He also reveals the most highly sought after skills of a global business leader.
