Today, through numerous polls and surveys, we observe a decline in cooperation at all levels within organizations. This issue has been strongly accentuated since Covid-19 and the increased digitalization in our daily work lives. Through our work as coaches, we witness direct consequences such as distress, isolation, demotivation, heavier workload…

To help tackle some of these issues, Turningpoint is supporting a new research collaboration with the University of Toronto and Sciences Po, which is focusing on how leadership can be effectively practiced to enhance cooperation within organizations, enabling them to achieve, and even surpass, their objectives.

The findings of this research titled: “Representations of leadership in contemporary organizations: Practical implications”, will provide us with fresh insights into leadership development, allowing us to formulate new methods and approaches to prepare leaders for the challenges of today’s workplace.

The objectives of the research are threefold:

  • Define the scope and nature of individual and collective perspectives on leadership in contemporary organizations.
  • Focus on the practice of leadership in a diversity of atypical or hybrid organizational forms prevalent in both the corporate and public sectors.
  • Define and understand system leadership in addressing major societal challenges like climate change and crisis management.

Turningpoint is thrilled to support this significant research endeavor, led by Professor Jean-Louis Denis, Université de Toronto and Henri Bergeron, Director of Research at the CNRS / SciencesPo and head of the Chair for Transformation of Organizations and Work. The results will be published in the form of a comprehensive literary review later this year.

Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting research collaboration!
