I invite your help in figuring this one out! For centuries, the norm of social reciprocity—by which I mean exchanging kindness, goods and services for mutual benefit and not the icky quid pro quo stuff that all too often contains shady dealings or subtle manipulation—has been part of the cultural fabric. In their book, People of the Lake: Mankind and its Beginnings , Richard Leakey and Kurt Lewin remark that our ancestors participated in an “honored network of obligation” i.e., I help you, you

I recently sent out a tweet, “When you forgive, the person who benefits most is yourself.” Someone who responded, “I”ll never forgive because what they did was unforgiveable.” I understand that feeling because I’ve experienced it myself.

☙ Bob Benmosche came out of retirement in August 2009 to lead American International Group’s turnaround. Although few doubted it was even possible, under his leadership, AIG repaid the $182.3 billion taxpayer bailout, with the government claiming a profit of more than $20 billion. ☙ His my-way-or-the-highway style worked well in this turnaround/crisis situation.

The following is a guest piece by fellow author (and Canadian) Michael Bungay Stanier. You jest, sir! Laziness as leadership? Surely that can’t be correct. “I didn’t get to where I am now, young man, by being lazy.” What is this, clickbait? In fact, no. Think about the dual responsibilities of any leader: results and people. That one-two combination goes by other names as well: strategy and culture; impact and engagement.

The project was suffering, at a plateau several millions of dollars into it’s beginning. It was an enterprise-wide global effort; a new system that would make life easier and ultimately save money for our company. We were in somewhat of a crisis and saving money by leveraging such systems was pretty important. The leader heading up the project was a couple of levels above me in this hierarchy-conscious organization.

A youth pastor emailed me. He’s frustrated his pastor continually caves into pressures of a few leaders in the church. They are not supportive of the youth ministry, even though it’s the fastest growing area of the church. The complaint they have? The ministry is costing far more than it brings into the church. Young people are coming to the church in growing numbers, but without their parents.

When do you make time to reflect? Is it at the end of the day or week? Or, perhaps after a project or challenging piece of work? Maybe you reflect after a particularly tough conversation?

My coaching clients have hard jobs with big responsibilities that generate lots of stress, and many of their spouses and partners have similarly demanding careers. And yet one of the most challenging experiences in their day doesn’t occur at work, but in the first 15 minutes after they arrive home and greet each other. When that initial personal encounter at the end of the workday goes well, it can help both parties feel a sense of care and appreciation that helps them unwind and feel bett

Dr. Alan Watkins , recommends that leaders create these seven conditions to help make team engagement more likely: Create interdependency - Ideally seek to make each team member's success dependent on another team member's to foster collaboration across functions.

I am an Uber enthusiast — the service is an easy and affordable way to get around. As a city dweller, the need to transport our dog is starting to feel like the only thing preventing me from ditching our station wagon. So it doesn’t surprise me that Uber’s bookings are said to have grown by more than 141% in the past year. This shift is starting to pose an existential question for the automobile industry: What sort of cars will we need in 10 years?

Leadership development represents a huge and growing investment for most organizations. Industry research, for example, shows that companies spent more than $24 billion on leadership and management training worldwide in 2013, an increase of 15% from 2012. The question is whether companies will get a worthwhile return on this investment. In past years leadership development has always been treated as a discretionary expense or even a luxury, and therefore something that could be pared down or eli

In English, we struggle with the distinction between “different” and “new.” It’s relevant when we come to describing business models and their likely impact. Let’s take cars as a starting point. There are many different makes and models on the market. They vary in shape, size, color, and features, but they’re also all the same — they’re all cars.

It is remarkable that gender inequality in the United States, the largest economy in the world, remains so high. While many argue that gender equality is the “right” thing to do, it is now clear that equality is also economically the “smart” thing to do. New research by the McKinsey Global Institute (MGI) finds that every U.S. state and city could add at least 5% to GDP by 2025 by advancing the economic potential of women.
