‘The art of meta-leadership allows you to be far better than competitors at seeing what is true and what isn’t.’

‘We use shortcuts to reduce uncertainty and make decisions faster, but they also make us more prone to error.’

‘The brilliant future we imagine is unattainable if we insist on guarantees of perfection.’

‘Leaders needn’t be in the weeds– but they can’t abide tactics that are disconnected from strategic direction.’

‘Leaders need expert advice, but it should not carry undue weight.’

‘People who aren’t adaptable will find success in some situations but will belly flop in others.’

‘Blaming others, or ourselves, for failure doesn’t teach us how something happened.’

‘Even intelligent, knowledgeable, experienced people fall into the trap of using either analysis or synthesis as a default.’

‘We need goals and actions- but we do better when they’re connected, and when our actions give us a glimpse of success.’

‘Great leaders use wisdom to help them discern what knowledge is needed in what circumstance.’

‘Deconstruction is the act of taking something apart while retaining the component parts.’

Change is here to stay. If you want to thrive, change is the way. If you are not willing to change, people will leave you behind.

But you can’t do it alone. You need other people. According to Arpil Rinne, ‘In times of great change, when the world is in flux, we need each other more than ever. We need one another’s support, wisdom, guidance, presence, and occasionally a shoulder to cry on. We need one another’s generosity.’

‘Knowing your enough means knowing that the more you give, the better you make others’ lives. The better you make others’ lives, the more they can contribute to the world, the more your life is improved … and the cycle continues.’

‘Generous leaders understand that having the greatest impact on the world means giving the most of ourselves, not acquiring the most for ourselves. To be more, give more.’

‘Leading with enough means nurturing relationships above all else: not for money, but for their inherent and often incalculable value.’

‘Knowing your enough sees through the futility of comparison and empowers you to develop your own metrics of ‘enoughness’ rooted in internal satisfaction, meaning, relationships, resilience, discovery, and helping others.’

‘Knowing your enough brings clarity about what really matters.’

‘When you know your enough, you have less anxiety and your ability to thrive expands a lot.’

‘We don’t need to find new solutions: we need to regain our bearings, reconnect with ourselves and one another, and discover what we’ve already known.’

‘Getting lost doesn’t mean lacking direction or being foolish- … it means being completely comfortable with what you don’t (and may never) know.’

‘Learning to see what’s invisible doesn’t mean losing focus or ignoring what is visible. … It’s the ability to adjust your gaze, see the full picuture, and really understand what’s what.’
