Response to PIERRE’S REVIEW ON COMPETENCIES AND PRINCIPLES – POST 8.1 Hello Kamal, Thank you for your post.

Sadie’s post is here: https://create.twu.ca/ldrs501/2018/11/22/5724/ Hello Sadie, Thank you for your post.

Kunal’s original post can be found here: https://create.twu.ca/ldrs501/2018/11/20/strategic-leadership-competencies/ Hello Kunal, Thank you for your post.

Ungerer, Ungerer, and Herholdt (2016, p.34) cite the story of a Zen master teaching a man about the importance of “emptying the cup” to learn something new. LDRS 501 course materials provide us with new ideas and new ways of implementing strategic leadership. Some of the material has been immediately useful, while other material may […]

Original post can be found here: https://create.twu.ca/ldrs501/2018/11/12/working-of-a-nonprofit-organization/ Thank you, Avisha, for your post. I believe this is the first time I am responding to one of your posts. Can I ask for clarity regarding your briefing periods and check-in processes? Am I correct in assuming front-line employees have time for an individual half-hour check-in with […]
Jessica’s post can be found here: https://create.twu.ca/jessicalaugsawatzky/2018/11/12/hc-1-leader-post-7-1/ Thank you, Jessica, for your post. I have been away from the Fraser Health Authority region for just under a year, but still maintain a working relationship with some of the project leads. I can relate to your story of conflict and interdepartmental communication. I am not sure if […]
Original post can be found here: https://create.twu.ca/psonvane/2018/10/23/317/ Hi Palak, Thank you for your post. I read your post and tried to imagine myself in that situation.
