There Is A Profound Difference Between Information

Encourage Reflective Backtalk: Leaders Know The Importance Of Having Someone In Their Lives Who Will Unfailingly And Fearlessly Tell Them The Truth.

Think Of Successful Creative Collaborations Are Dreams With Deadlines.

All Great Leaders Constantly Seek New Information And New Ways Of Thinking.

Organizations Have To Come To Grips With The Fact That Tests Of Adaptive Capability Aren't Always Pleasant. Learning Can Be A Powerful Emotional Event, And Organizations Have To Be Cognizant Of That. They Must Understand That Those Who Complete High-quality Executive Education Programs Are Going To See The Organization With Fresh Eyes After They Return. Those Who Re-enter The Workplace Filled With New Enthusiasm And New Ideas Often Find A Chilly Response On The Part Of Their Supervisors.

The Leaders I Met, Whatever Walk Of Life They Were From, Whatever Institutions They Were Presiding Over, Always Referred Back To The Same Failure Something That Happened To Them That Was Personally Difficult, Even Traumatic, Something That Made Them Feel That Desperate Sense Of Hitting Bottom-as Something They Thought Was Almost A Necessity. It's As If At That Moment The Iron Entered Their Soul; That Moment Created The Resilience That Leaders Need.
