Leadership is a social process to achieve direction, alignment and commitment

“Culture eats strategy for breakfast”

Strategy reflects the pattern of choices an organization makes to position itself for superior performance over time

“Business strategy is HOW we plan to journey from the present state to our desired future”

“Leadership strategy enables the execution on business strategies”

“Translating strategy into practice requires coherence aligning strategy and tactics”

“5 main boundaries are vertical, horizontal, stakeholder, demographic and geographic”

“Manage boundaries by buffering (creating safety), reflecting (creates respect), connecting (creates trust), mobilizing (creates community), weaving (creates interdependence), transforming (creates re-invention)”

“Nothing so undermines organizational change as the failure to think through the losses people face.” William Bridges
