From his perspective, however, there was nothing to discuss.

It has been well documented today’s culture craves authenticity in leadership. It shouldn’t be, but many times it is hard to find in leadership, even in the church. One of the fastest way for a leader to lose loyal followers is to fall short in the area of authenticity. Last year we met with a group of Millennials in our church – asking them to help us think how we can attract and retain their age group.

HBR STAFF. People generally assume that when they consider another person a “friend,” that person also thinks of them as a friend. In other words, friendship is reciprocal.

Then I uncovered a story of business invention and reinvention that nobody knew anything about. A tale that featured three dozen or so people who hatched forty-some innovative ideas and products, all in less than two years’ time, that over time accrued a collective value of nearly a trillion dollars and employment for millio

For 35 years, I have used the Three Box Solution framework in my work with corporations. This is practical approach integrates (Box 1) current business performance with (Box 2) selective forgetting of the past and (Box 3) creating the future.
