I just finished reading “What to Make of a Life”, by Jim Collins. So inspired by it. I really related to all the concepts and life phases he so eloquently dove into. Encoding, cliffs, fog, simplex stepping, extend out/circle back, etc. This is not only an amazing research project, but his artful pairings of the people explored, the patterns identified and conclusions reached are groundbreaking. I am grateful to our mutual friend, Cathy Hemming, who published Good to Great ( which was a huge influence on my own career, as I wrote about in my own book, “Layered Leadership”) jimcollins.com

Spotted in @warwicksbooks at the San Diego airport this morning! #layeredleadership lawrencerarmstrong.com layeredleadershipbook.com

Wandered into @Barnes&Noble Aliso Viejo today and found Layered Leadership prominently displayed! They asked me to sign these copies, and will place them in an even better location. Thank you B&N!
