Truth brings unity
Truth is like sunlight—it clears the fog. Hide it, and you breed suspicion. Lead with honesty, and people will stand with you.
- Overreach: Drowning others in details.
- Shortfall: Hiding truths, sowing mistrust.
- On point: Share truth, build trust, but don’t overshare.
Thinkers: Gandhi, Mandela, Arendt, Drucker.
Bold actions fuel growth
Safe moves keep you afloat; bold moves push you forward. Progress comes from risk, not comfort. Be bold, or stay stuck.
- Overreach: Reckless leaps into the unknown.
- Shortfall: Playing it too safe.
- On point: Take calculated risks, not blind jumps.
Thinkers: Roosevelt, Sandberg, Branson, Machiavelli.
Change feeds progress
Without change, stagnation wins. Change propels you—fight it, and you’ll sink. Leaders ride the waves of change, not drown in fear.
- Overreach: Chaotic changes with no anchor.
- Shortfall: Clinging to routines, stifling progress.
- On point: Embrace change, but steer with purpose.
Thinkers: Darwin, Heraclitus, Kotter, Christensen.
