Center for Public Leadership

Here is a videofrom the tribute to Warren Bennis at Harvard's Center for Public Leadership. I got the privilege and challenge to be invited to give a student perspective just before Tom Peter's keynote, in front of authors who had sold over 60 million books on the topic.  I tried to focus on the things that really make this place unique for me in 9 minuts starting around minute 13:30 


Bill George on True North Leadership


Bill George's work on True North shows how anyone who follows their internal compass can become an authentic leader. This leadership tour de force is based on research and first-person interviews with 125 of today's top leaders—with some surprising results. Click here to see a video of Bill discussing true North in late October 2008 at Google, at a very interesting time since he is on the boards of such companies as Goldman Sachs.

An Interview with Linda A. Hill, Professor, Harvard Business School. We won't find new global leaders by looking in conventional places for people who act in conventional take-charge ways. Instead, look for people who can lead from behind to promote the collective genius of their teams

About Me

My photo
This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; the being a force of nature instead of a feverish, selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy. I am of the opinion that my life belongs to the whole community, and as long as I live it is my privilege to do for it whatever I can. I want to be thoroughly used up when I die, for the harder I work the more I live. I rejoice in life for its own sake. Life is no "brief candle" for me. It is a sort of splendid torch which I have got hold of for the moment, and I want to make it burn as brightly as possible before handing it on to future generations.
