Leadership and The
Web:
Are You
Prepared?
I doubt very much that
you'll hear any other leadership program discussing
these concepts, which make them even more important
to pay attention to as you consider the leadership
equation.
Today, change is occurring
so rapidly that it is no longer possible for a
single person to keep up. While I've written about
the antidote in several issues--that is, learning to
design in collaboration.
Yet, while that works,
leaders have to learn to get the big picture in
order to orchestrate leadership.
Today, leadership and the
web are synonymous with efficiency, effectiveness
and sustainability, whether you believe that or not.
Of course, now some of you are thinking or feeling
that if we focus too much on efficiency and
effectiveness that we lose the leverage in
leadership.
Well, from my point of view,
anything not optimized is a problem and that means:
"not too much of anything." It is an
equilibrium, not balance that is at issue. The
management of entropy is key...not the elimination
of entropy through balance!
In any case, MOST of the
leaders I coach today are WAY behind the curve in
keeping up with even rudimentary "web skills." So
much so, that they are suboptimizing those around
them.
In my view, people talk
about the dearth of leadership and it's not leaders
that we're missing, it is the leader who can
function across the web...and by that I mean
Internet, connectedness and of course, the exchange
of local and non-local.
I bit the bullet back in
2000 and started educating myself about the web, how
the Internet REALLY works and what is going on
behind the scenes. I spoke about this back in 2000
and here's a brief on it from 2001 Consulting Today:
Being a Skilled Professional is NOT Enough.
Clearly, leadership in the
future will be web-based, or simultaneous--a key
point Ram Charan makes in Profitable Growth.
How can a leader become simultaneous? By using
connectivity to gather, perceive, evaluate and
implement action based on a combinatorial approach
using data--far-flung as it might be.
Yet, how does a leader learn
what really goes on behind the scenes and how the
web really works in their business or organization?
Well, I can't tell you
because it takes to long, but I can show you.
Join me in Switzerland with
my host Mark Ita in a leadership university
sponsored "emersion" with me, Mike Jay.
Not only will I show you how
to understand the way the web works, I'll create for
you in 5 days, the most amazing insight you'll ever
have by watching me demonstrate how to create a
scalable web-business.
ANYONE, leading a
professional or small business today needs to
implement immediately a system like this and if
you're a global 2000 leader and don't know a thing
about the web, sitting in with us will not only open
your eyes, you'll get to actually USE that laptop
you carry around with you...in ways that will open
your eyes to the leadership of the future.
Here's the bottom-line about
leadership and the web:
In 5 days, you'll be
immersed in learning how to create, manage and
monitor a web-based business--you'll not only walk
away with your own sophisticated web-based business
system, but you'll create an annuity that will feed
your grandchildren--in just 5 days.
Why should a leader
participate?
EVERYONE who leads will have
to understand the basics of web-based commerce that
I will teach you in just 5 days.
You won't be able to
maintain your personal standard of living without
it, not alone create a successful global business
that will carry you into the future.
If after 5 days with me, you
don't agree that it was everything I said it was,
I'll refund your tuition on the spot.

Until
