About THINK. FEEL. LEAD.

“Management is doing things right; leadership is doing the right things.” - Peter Drucker, 1959

Peter Drucker’s ubiquitous maxim remains true today. That’s the beauty of broad statements. They are open to interpretation and can adapt to the times. What doing things right and doing the right things meant in 1959 is certainly different from what it means today. What we consider effective leadership has changed dramatically. Today, our leaders are expected to be authentic, put people first, and possess a high level of emotional intelligence. Great strategic ideas and presence are no longer the only table stakes.

Through THINK. FEEL. LEAD., I’ll explore ways to meet these evolving expectations by combining great ideas (the THINK) with emotional intelligence (the FEEL) to LEAD people and organizations to do the right things in the right way.

I'm sharing my reflections on authentically leading people and organizations with your mind and heart. I hope that you'll share yours in return.
