Leadership is forged in fire
For Nelson Mandela it was Robben Island. For former U.S. presidential candidate John McCain it was Vietnam. There is a point in the lives of leaders, a moment when the leader makes the grade, when they leap from management to leadership, from team member to leader.Article 26 May 2016

Leaders thrive on ambiguity
“To be omnipotent but friendless is to reign”, wrote the poet Percy Bysshe Shelley. He was right. Even if a leader’s power doesn’t quite stretch to omnipotence, being a leader can be a lonely place. It can also be a confusing one. Isolation and ambiguity are powerfully destructive forces among the ranks of leaders.Article 10 May 2016
