Modesto A. Maidique, executive director of the center and president emeritus of FIU, spoke on \u201cAre You a Level-Six Leader?\u201d and Meredith Newman, director, School of Public Administration, addressed the topic \u201cEmotional Labor and Burnout: What Managers Need to Know.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI had never heard of the concept of emotional labor before,\u201d said attendee Jose Rodriguez, assistant dean of FIU\u2019s Honors College. \u201cThe amount of effort that goes into doing a particular task has emotional components as well. Effective leaders will understand that and guide their followers accordingly.\u201d<\/p>\n

On the topic of \u201cDo CEOs Believe They are Smarter, More Skilled and Better than You?\u201d Nathan Hiller, who teaches courses on leadership, presented research on executive narcissism.<\/p>\n

\u201cA study of 209 CEOs shows that they do have stronger feelings of superiority than the rest of the population but there are different levels within that high range,\u201d said Hiller, also pointing out that the level of narcissism becomes predictive in determining how a CEO will run an organization.<\/p>\n

\u201cI thought the entire event was very worthwhile,\u201d Rodriguez said. \u201cI learned quite a bit, including information on topics that were new to me.\u201d<\/p>\n
