By Lisa Frantzen , Jared Raynor & Hannah Taylor The social sector generally considers leadership development a good investment, especially when it comes to cultivating systems-level change. But ask leadership program developers and evaluators, “What is leadership?”, and you will often get vague responses rife with potential bias: “You’ll know it when you see it,” or “It’s the special sauce,” are two surprisingly common answers.
