Hi Chad:

Thanks for your wonderful and eloquent comment. What I locked-on to was your last sentence: "One form of leadership can get business done. The other leads toward genuine, transformational, life change."  From my perspective, where we've gone awry is that so many seem to believe that for the former to exist the latter can not. Nothing can be further from the truth...It is the latter that actually creates value and ultimately sustainability. As we've all observed over the last few years, those leaders who solely focus on short-term interests to the exclusion of long-term value pay a very steep price for doing so. Thanks again for adding value to the discussion Chad.
