Have you ever admired the powerful words of CEOs, of great scientists or teachers, or of great political or spiritual leaders? What is it about their words that inspires and engages us? Such people bring strategic perspective – arguably the most important single element of leadership.
Based on years of study, on their work with leaders of major corporations, and on recent interviews of business and political leaders, Tom and Robin believe that strategic perspective is a capability that can be developed and improved by knowing what to practice and how. In this Executive eBriefing, they share from their upcoming book how individuals can define and recognize strategic perspective. Using a wide range of examples taken from business, politics, graphic arts, photography, music, and other disciplines, Tom and Robin illustrate key characteristics of powerful ideas that win followers. In so doing, they bring together the powerful themes that are essential for leadership in business.
