28. Will Tanner Talks Great Houses
Q: What does the cursus honorum look like in modern terms, and how could we translate that to contemporary leadership development?
The speakers argue for a modern equivalent of cross-domain leadership development where individuals cultivate a range of competencies—economic, legal, civic, and strategic—rather than hyper-specializing in one narrow field. The idea is to foster leaders who can navigate multiple domains, collaborate across disciplines, and maintain virtue and public service as practical priorities in a technologically advanced economy.
