Lessons of Experience
The LOE research program is guided by one question:
o What are the processes by which executives learn, grow, and change over the course of their careers?
o The assumption underlying this question is that leadership is learned.
o We believe that today, even more than before, the manager’s ability and willingness to learn the lessons of leadership from experience is the foundation for leading with impact.
