Mavericks at Work
Bill Taylor is making some great points this morning...
On strategy: Products and services don't transform an industry, but the ideas you stand for can. So then, the essence of strategy is to advance ideas, not to offer new products or services.
On innovation: Great ideas come from all levels of the organization and outside of the organization, but the best leaders are smart enough to ask.
On human resources: The people are the company. You can't wait around for them to come to you (through traditional job ads, for example); you need to seek them out.
