“I think we have to notice that the business processes we use right now for thinking and planning and budgeting and strategy are all delivered on very tight agendas.”

I think a major act of leadership right now, call it a radical act, is to create the places and processes so people can actually learn together, using our experiences.
We experience problem-solving sessions as war zones, we view competing ideas as enemies, and we use problems as weapons to blame and defeat opposition forces. No wonder we can't come up with real lasting solutions!
In these troubled, uncertain times, we don't need more command and control we need better means to engage everyone's intelligence in solving challenges and crises as they arise.
Too many problem-solving sessions become battlegrounds where decisions are made based on power rather than intelligence.
