[OSList] Toyota or equivalent / Leadership

Wed Jul 17 03:21:41 PDT 2013

Dear all,

this is great information and insights!
Thank you for sharing.

Yes, it is fun to co-create a session about leadership.
Due to my background I call it genuine leadership - but I guess authentic leadership is the same.

I like the clarification around wisdom of the whole.
And I love how this list expresses and lives it.

I pass your wisdom on...
Maybe my friend (and guinea pig) will join this circle as a result of your sharing - who knows!

much Love
AC*
