As Wittgenstein writes “For a large class of cases — though not for all — in which we employ the word ‘meaning’ it can be defined thus: the meaning of a word is its use in the language" (PI 43) I came across one passage and it made me think of leadership and the human construction of organizations with the managerial accountability hierarchy.

While most C-level execs have a general idea of what I’m referring to, it is also quite clear that most can’t even begin to define it, much less articulate the specific constructs of a sound business model.

  If someone has the temerity to offer you some constructive feedback, give them at least three reasons why they're wrong. This will give everyone a sense that they can be dismissed easily since they're not fully capable of doing any job, anywhere in the organization.    Defend yourself no matter what.

These CEOs can often go undiscovered for great lengths of time before their poorly constructed vision bubbles-up to the surface, by which time it is often too late to repair the damage. Vision is the core of culture, and without it organizations will never move beyond mediocrity – if they get that far. Thanks for sharing Mark.

As organizations expand and grow, the skills that led to success often won’t sustain further development in a more complex, high-stakes environment. Top performers will be more engaged when they receive constructive information about what they do well and what they need to improve. Present and future executives need more.
