Last Friday, I went to a lecture on a new model of leadership. Pretty common sense stuff - but also stuff that just doesn't happen in large companies and I think people need to come back to.
The fundamentals:
Leadership is different from management. It's about vision, getting others to commit, anticipating breakdowns, and managing them.
As Jensen (the speaker) spoke of "breakdowns as an opportunity to breakthrough" and his colleague who said "oh, goody, we're having a breakdown" - I thought back to Jeremy's presentation from the conference. Expect some of your innovations to fail. Without failure you become the best typewriter company in the world.....
And I'm all wrapped up in Heroes! I've been checking out the "360 experience", the convergence system of stuff they have on their site - it's pretty cool. Check out this site - not only is it fun to get involved in the speculations and theorizing, but it's fascinating to see the layers they've built around this....
