Conflict is the primary engine of creativity and innovation.

Worry not that your child listens to you; worry most that they watch you.

Attention is the currency of leadership.

Your inspiration taps hidden reserves of promise that sustain people through times that induce despair. You enable people to envision a future that sustains the best from their past while also holding out new possibilities.

Exercising leadership is an expression of your aliveness... But when you cover yourself up, you risk losing something as well. In the struggle to save yourself, you can give up too many of those qualities that are the essence of being alive, like innocence, curiosity, and compassion.

Stay diagnostic even as you take action.

Exercising adaptive leadership is about giving meaning to your life beyond your own ambition.
