The Eight Keys to Inspired Leadership from Kevin Asbjornson

Performing Arts-based Training has not only gained significant traction in leadership development, but it is taking a position at the forefront as companies and organizations realize the critical role creativity plays in innovation, which drives success in today's highly competitive global economy. As part of his creative leadership paradigm, Kevin Asbjörnson, MIM -- a leading international authority on Performing Arts-based training and inspiring creative leadership -- developed the Eight Keys to Inspired Leadership. These principles are based on the shared artistic competencies of performing artists and leaders. This article, entitled "The Art of Communication: Channelling Your Inner Artist," was originally published in The Banff Centre's Leadership Compass magazine and reviews these principles. The Eight Keys to Inspired Leadership provide leaders with a robust framework for creating an environment where innovation happens organically at every level of an organization.  A PDF of the article can be read at the website of Asbjörnson's professional services firm, www.InspireImagineInnovate.com.
