The Paradox Of Leadership Coaching In A Vuca World, Raymond L. Forbes
All Faculty and Staff Scholarship
What does it feel like to be living right in the middle of a major paradox? Disorienting? Confusing? Unbalancing?

The purpose of this qualitative, Delphi method study was to investigate the leadership development perceptions and experiences among existing LAM missionaries in the regions of Latin America (Colombia, Cuba, Mexico City, Peru, Brazil, and Ecuador) to provide suggestions for improving effective leadership …
