Harold, great post. I am sitting in Boston Airport after a couple of days with Traci and gang from Worldblu in a roundtable dialogue for leaders of democratic companies. It was inspiring. We met at the http://www.dcontinuum.com offices who were great hosts and a lot of fun. The amazing thing about gathering a gang of leaders from influential organizations committed to democratic priciples is the conversations that emerged. Having folks like this who view the world and business different than most leads to some very innovative ways of thinking. I must admit, it was a relief to meet others who are working through the excitement and pain of organizational and human transformation. I would never go back to how I thought before about how a company should be led.
