Systems-Level Thinking and Leadership for Our Times

Ponder long enough and you might recall hearing at a business conference or reading a blog post from a renowned futurist, author or social commentator some time ago that while things to come remained as always unpredictable, it was likely that the pace of change in our times would indeed accelerate. Looking around at the ways our lives and work have been altered in the past 24 months alone,

Webinar - The Way of the Dolphin - John O. Burdett

More than anything, agility is a way to think, it’s a mindset, and as such, without 'leadership' you still don't have much. The type of leadership required exudes, encompasses, encourages, and expresses agility in everything the leader does. Which leads us to the 'The Way of the Dolphin'.

Replacing Fear With Fortitude

One of the reasons a weekend respite from one’s executive leadership responsibilities – or a longer holiday break away from the office – can be so productive for one’s state of mind is because it allows us the time to reflect on our work and absorb important lessons learned by others. There is no shortage of illuminating quotes, allegories and simple epiphanies circulating on the Internet,

Holding Firm In The Storm, Aligning For The Future

While so much of the world around us is changing, there will come a time when people around the world will look for signs, evidence and leaders in whom they can believe and put their trust for better things to come in the future.

The Case For The Global Compliance Function

There comes a time in the history of every global company when its executive leaders wish they had seen something coming. It might have been a warning about potential trouble ahead.

Providing Opportunities for Next Generation Leaders

An old adage suggests that with every generation comes an intrinsic, experience-earned disdain for the next generation and reason to suspect its members’ qualifications and intentions, particularly in workplaces where office politics abound.

Whatever the form, these modern-day challenges for executives tend to raise heartbeats

The Importance of Picking The Right Leader

Choosing the right leader for any organisation is its most important business.

Knowing When To Change Before It's Too Late

One of the most difficult challenges today's global executives face has everything to do with the shifting market dynamics that are already changing or threatening to disrupt legacy customer and distributor relationships.

Creating An Environment For Innovation

Charles Darwin is long remembered for informing us, based on years of study as a naturalist and biologist, that it is not the strongest of the species that survives, but rather, the one most adaptable to change.
