Are we having fun yet?   We have heard tell that one of the hallmarks of a great leader is mastery of emotions.  Yet, within that mastery, watch for stoicism.  Yesterday’s questions were about feelings, so let’s continue for at least one more day, identifying what it...

How do leaders analyze?  Is there one way that’s right?  Or are we all so unique that we understand many paths to the outcome we seek?  How do we know?  At any moment in time, good leaders stand on the edge.  Decisions are made in a flash, and things change on a...
