Richard Marshall, Senior Director for People and Culture of World Vision International
Why CEOs of NGOs fail when their 'dark side' gets in the way
Leadership success is as much about emotional intelligence as it is about technical competence, market intelligence, strategic insight or business acumen. Whilst huge demands are placed on those who aspire to leadership roles, research suggests that leaders actually fail because of who they are and how they act in certain situations. The Hogan Development Survey (HDS) describes the dark side of personality –qualities that emerge in times of increased strain and that can derail peoples’ chances of success. This talk will draw on the work of Dotlichand Cairo and apply their research of leadership behavior to the world of transnational NGOs, giving a first-hand experience of the successes and failures in leadership practice.
Richard Marshall is the Senior Director for People and Culture of World Vision International –one of the largest and most influential Western TNGOs. He brings his background as a chartered occupational psychologist to work closely with senior staff to lead and establish sustainable organizational change and effectively manage people.
Lunch will be provided.

We’re Turning 100!
To mark our centennial in the fall of 2024, the Maxwell School will hold special events and engagement opportunities to celebrate the many ways—across disciplines and borders—our community ever strives to, as the Oath says, “transmit this city not only not less, but greater, better and more beautiful than it was transmitted to us.”
Throughout the year leading up to the centennial, engagement opportunities will be held for our diverse, highly accomplished community that now boasts more than 38,500 alumni across the globe.
