Our Vision
 The reason I
started this company was to promote the
interaction among individuals that were
interested in bridging the gap between the
academic world of education and the actual
leadership issues that confront today's and
tomorrow's emerging leaders. The reverse is also
true in that we want to create a cycle where the
business world helps to feed the academic
environment.
I have learned that while the text book study
that we receive in our fine Universities have
laid the groundwork and foundation for many of
our nation's largest and most successful
businesses in many different industries, I've always
been amazed at how some leaders, given the same
set of assets in the same business industry,
could produce more in the way of results than
their counterparts given the same set of assets.
Having had the opportunity to come in contact
with many of the nation's premier business minds
and many leadership coaches, I have found that
the truly successful leaders share one thing in
common: they understand today's business
environment. They understand that knowledge and
the sharing of knowledge is vital to the success
of their company. I would like for this website
to be the starting point for that type of
sharing of information concerning a wide array
of leadership issues. This site will post a
monthly leadership question that all who have an
interest in leadership are welcome to comment
on. At the conclusion of the month we will take
all of the answers and look for a common thread
to the discussion. In other words, a consensus
feeling about the question. We will then write a
summary and post it in the Leadership periodical
section for others to view that may be seeking
an answer to the very same question.
In addition to this valuable
forum, we ask existing business leaders, success
coaches, motivational speakers or college
professors to contribute an article on what it
takes to be an effective leader and a one line
statement that other leaders can take with them
to use. Please e-mail us your leadership ideas,
and we will post them in our guest leader
section.So please visit
the site regularly, post your theories and ideas
to the monthly leadership question and most of
all learn from others.
