The answer – know thyself & work/life integration

24. Networked Collaboration
We may be moving to
a world of networks
well led, as opposed to
organizations well
managed. You can't
really manage a
network, but you can
help lead within a
network. In any case,
networks are very alive
and real and are
becoming building
blocks.

25. Your Competitive Advantage
“It is hard to plan for the long-term future when
you don’t know what is going to happen five
minutes from now.
Today, a competitive edge based solely on material
advantage is thin and temporary; the edge quickly
becomes the margin. The ability to define the edge,
and the ultimate competitive advantage, is found
in the smarts, heart and ingenuity of your people.
That’s your powerhouse. Tap that, train it, focus it
and mobilize it; now you’ve engaged a network
and inspired a sustainable shift.

30. “In
a
period
of
rapid
change
and
increasing
complexity,
the
winners
are
going
to
be
the
people
who
can
LEARN
faster
than
the
rate
of
CHANGE
and
faster
than
their
COMPETITION.”
