You’ve finally landed the big promotion. You have the title, the office, and the authority. But according to a ten-year study of over 2,700 leaders, you are statistically more likely to fail than to succeed.In today's 5-minute briefing on "Rising to Power," we explore the "Leadership Gap." Discover why the skills that made you a star manager are the very things that will cause you to crash at the executive level.
