The Problem: Boring, predictable meetings Your team meetings are the same old, same old. The routine has become somewhat boring, predictable and dull. This is impacting on the content and discussion and something needs to be shaken-up. You sense that a kind...
We are here to put “dents in the universe otherwise why even bother” said computer pioneer and maverick Steve Jobs. For the past four decades, however, precious few businesses have been dent makers, preferring rather to focus incessantly on short-termism, quarterly...
Conventional marketers are measuring the right things with the wrong measurement instruments. The severe addiction of judging performance by traffic, ratings, online engagement percentages, followers and conversion rates is becoming almost preposterous. The management...
Every now and then I get really frustrated that I won’t be around the see ‘the future’. As someone who labels himself as ‘a futurist’ that might make little sense but, thinking about the future and being present in the future, well those are two different things...
One of the things that gets in the way of fostering a healthy culture in large organisations is the very thing we implement to address culture: annual staff surveys. Although well-intentioned (we do after all want to know how our people feel about their organisational...
Ernest Shackleton's Trans-Antarctica expedition of 1914 - 1917 is one of the most incredible adventure stories of all time. When the great explorer advertised for men to join his expedition this is the advert he posted: Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages,...

Every now and then life gives us opportunity to say, “thank goodness that wasn’t me!” - understanding that but for some quirk of fate, it could so easily have been ‘me’. What is regarded as the most epic of all shoelace tumbles happened to one Nick Flynn in 2006....

The Future-Fit Organisation
Graeme Codrington and Keith Coats discuss the difference between strategy and culture, and why culture is way more important for leaders to focus on if they want to ensure their organisations keep pace with the changing world they operate in. They talk about The Circle of Courage, a model that has been taken from Native American culture and now applied to modern organisations, as a framework to help leaders build future-fit organisations, support the development of high-performing people and grow healthy communities.
Three Unusual Book Reviews
Ray de Villiers talks about science fiction books, and why he reads them. He reviews his latest read, “The Red Queen” by Jeb Kinnison.
Keith Coats looks at a leadership book, “Leadership and Self-Deception” by The Arbinger Institute. This book is a story – a novel – about leadership in a corporate world.
And then compares it to “The Broken Boss” by Aiden Choles, another leadership fable, with deep insights and conversation starting potential.
Why we battle with change – a lesson from QWERTY keyboards
Why don’t we change? Why do we battle with change? Graeme Codrington looks at the keyboard on your phone and the strange layout of the letters to provide some clues about why we and our organisations struggle to change, and shares insights into how we can learn to deal with disruption.

“All people dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible” said T.E. Lawrence. Here's the thing, we all have a...
