Discover the art of leadership without the official title in this insightful session, "How to Lead When You Are Not in Charge." Learn how to harness the power of informal authority to guide and inspire your team. You'll understand the crucial differences between formal authority, akin to a monarch's rule, and informal authority, similar to a shaman's influence, and learn how to leverage both to your advantage.

Discover how asking the right questions can be a leader's superpower, using them to clarify team objectives and steer your team toward success. Delve into the importance of the "first follower" in leading teams and organizations, and learn how being an effective first follower can enhance your leadership capabilities.
