ORDER MANTRA LEADERSHIP! ORDER MANTRA DESIGN!
Leadership is inclusive of many things, but in its narrowest definition it is about influencing others. Learning and education are most effective through repetition and practice. Mantra Leadership is the convergence of continuing leadership education through the utilization of essential leadership mantras.
