Creating Possibilities
Creating Possibilities
April 12, 1999
"Leaders make a difference by creating possibilities and breakthroughs. They do this through the way they speak and listen. The conversations they start change the world around them in small and big ways.
Charles Darwin said, 'What if --' and our perception of ourselves and our place in the universe changed forever. However it wasn't his contributions so much as his 'possibility thinking' that distinguished him as a leader. After all what is a theory but a possibility that you take a stand for (Krisco, 1997, pp.193, 195)."
