There are some who argue that leaders face unprecedented demands as  we enter the 21st century.
The pace of organizations is faster than ever  due to technology advances and impatience in stakeholder groups. There  is increased diversity due to globalization.
The workforce is more  nomadic; few people today spend their entire careers in a single  company. This puts a lot of pressure on leaders and may demand new or  evolved competencies.
Using the module readings, Argosy University online library  resources, and the Internet, including general organizational sources  like the Wall Street Journal, BusinessWeek, or Harvard Business Review, research the demands facing 21st century leaders.
Then, respond to the following:
What are the challenges facing leaders in today's environment?  Consider both internal and external challenges within an organization.
Describe the impact of those challenges on today's leaders. Explain how leaders need to respond to them.
Discuss at least three-four core competencies that you think leaders  need to be effective in today's environment. Explain how these  competencies will address the challenges you identified.
By the due date assigned, post your response to the appropriate Discussion Area. Through the end of the module, review and comment on at least two peers' responses.
Write your initial response in 300-500 words.
