A Human Dimensions of Organizations (HDO) Webinar
This webinar will examine how elections have mattered in the past and what we should expect from the 2024 election. The material presented will be non-partisan and focused on leadership: how do elections affect the practice of leadership? We will analyze where candidates change policies, and where they don’t.
Join us Wednesday, October 2, 2024 as we anticipate and plan for what will happen after November 2024. Together, we’ll learn the leadership and policy effects of elections and better understand the possibilities and limits of political leadership.
