“Above all, good leaders are open. They go up, down, and around their organization to reach people. They don't stick to the established channels. They're informal. They're straight with people. They make a religion out of being accessible. They never get bored telling their story.” PeopleStoriesReligionLeaderOrganizationDown AndSticksBoredGood Leader Author:Jack Welch
“Nostalgia is also a trait of the organizations that I call lodges - everything from corporate cultures to religious sects. Their bonding power often exceeds loyalty to family or country because they create intimacy through shared ideals and beliefs, ceremonies, stories, and legends, and depend on it for their survival. The message is clear: Don't question what we're doing. Just appreciate how long we've been doing it.” LongCountryStoriesCultureBeliefReligiousBusinessClearDependsMessagesSurvivalIdealsAppreciateOrganizationNostalgiaLoyaltyIntimacyCorporateLegendsTraitsCeremonyExceedSectsBondingCorporate CultureLodgesReligious Sects Book:Thinking In The Future Tense Source: Thinking In The Future Tense
