Every system is perfectly designed to get the results it gets. Including yours.

Behavior is a function of the person and the situation. That single idea, taken seriously, changes what a leader does on Monday morning. Most of what gets called a people problem is a conditions problem wearing a disguise.

Recurring themes, drawn from the research behind The Entrepreneurial Mindset Advantage:

  • Why the systems built for efficiency quietly punish the exploration you now need
  • Technical problems versus adaptive challenges, and the cost of confusing the two
  • Why initiative cannot be mandated, and what works instead of a memo
  • The diamonds in your own backyard: the people already solving problems nobody asked them to solve
  • Bandwidth as a precondition for thinking, not a luxury
  • What happens to an organization that meets change by doing more of what it already does
