Change from the top down happens at the will and whim of those below.

How do you change the world? One room at a time. Which room? The one you're in.

We must establish a personal connection with each other. Connection before content. Without relatedness, no work can occur.

All we have to do to create the future is to change the nature of our conversations, to go from blame to ownership, and from bargaining to commitment, and from problem solving to possibility.

Ones vision is not a road map but a compass.

The task of leadership is to be intentional about the way we group people and the questions that we engage them in.

Close your mouth, block off your senses, blunt your sharpness, untie your knots, soften your glare, settle your dust. This is the primal identity.
