How do you…

… make sure you get the bubbling up of ideas through a coalition of energy, rather the boiling down that consensus inevitably provokes? It’s about eliminating all the ordinary, in-between stuff that is no good. You have to cut it out and concentrate all the energy on stretching for the best. Then the really good stuff acts as a magnet for more. If you allow middling stuff to stay – the filler stuff – then that works as a magnet for more of the same too

Individuals and….

… organizations that are good react quickly to change. Individuals and organizations that are great create change
