The need for bigger questions

We have spent decades imagining that leaders are the source of leadership, the powerhouse of a business, and carry within us an array of concepts about what it means to be a leader, what goals are, what success is. It seems inevitable that the way in which the roles of leader and follower are understood, embodied and enacted will have a profound impact on what is played out in relation to engagement in an organisational context.

Let’s share favorite quotations that are somehow relevant to business. I frequently include them in letters, e-mails, proposals, and book reviews. They may not always provide a head-snapping revelation but do add some “seasoning” to the prose.
