Consider : Harnessing the Power of Reflective Thinking In Your Organization by Daniel Patrick Forrester. W E HAVE more recorded information about leadership now than at any other time in history. Most of it deals with the surface turbulence, which is important but not complete. In all of this information there is the sense too, that perhaps we have lost the wisdom we need and that maybe some new thing will help us to avoid what we already know and don’t want to do.

Half the problem is that we don’t consistently come to the table with technology solutions for business problems/opportunities before being asked. In other words, we react and don’t anticipate what other functions will need. Either that, or we do it in fits and starts, especially if our proferred solution is shot down or unwelcome.
